P6M have been busy creating their own rainforest scenes using natural materials collected from around the school grounds, along with a range of classroom craft resources. Drawing on everything they’ve learned in WAU about rainforest layers, habitats and wildlife, they planned their designs carefully and followed each step through from first sketch to final shoebox masterpiece. Every box is completely unique, and the pupils have loved having the freedom to be creative. The finished scenes look fantastic, and everyone should feel very proud of their creations. Well Done P6M!

P6M enjoyed a fantastic blend of classroom learning and outdoor exploration today. We began by investigating the unique conditions found in a rainforest - from intense humidity to heavy rainfall - and discussed what designers would need to consider when creating a shelter for such an environment. Working in groups, pupils sketched out imaginative designs and identified the key features that would help a structure cope with challenging weather.
In the afternoon, we headed to the Forest School area to bring those ideas to life. Using natural materials and plenty of teamwork, each group built their own shelter inspired by their classroom plans. The creativity on display was brilliant, collaboration was strong, and P6M had a great time experimenting, problem‑solving and building together.

Mr Mitchell’s P6 class made the most of today’s gorgeous weather with a music lesson in our forest school area. Inspired by rainforest images, pupils set out to recreate the sounds of the jungle using nothing but body percussion and the natural materials they could gather around them. Soon the space was alive with rustling leaves, tapping sticks, rhythmic stomps and—at one unforgettable moment—some wildly imaginative monkey calls.
The class threw themselves into the challenge with brilliant energy, experimenting, collaborating and laughing their way through the creative process. Their final soundscapes were imaginative, expressive and full of character. A fantastic afternoon of sunshine, music and creativity from P6M. Well done!
