Year 3 used their map skills in Geography to locate some mountain ranges including the Alps, the Andes and the Himalayas. We have been learning about volcanoes and mountains.

Year 3 are really proud of their writing. We have been reading Escape from Pompeii and started to create our own version of it and started to edit our work.

Year 4 are busy investigating circuits…we are having many “lightbulb” moments 😁

Year 4 are getting ready for the Jubilee-Pilgrims of Hope launch day on Friday. Our Holy door is going to look fine!

In Tuesday afternoon’s computing lesson, our Year 1 children have been using the iPads to create lists. Look how proud these two children are to show off their work 📷

The children at St Augustine’s achieve both in and out of the classroom. Well done to this pupil, who had trials for the GB ice hockey team this week 📷 📷

Year 4 have been busy learning all about money. Thank you SKINT2MINT for an engaging and fun afternoon!

The passports are ready for our whole school pilgrimage tomorrow. The Holy doors look fantastic and it will be wonderful for the children to take a moment to pray and reflect as they visit each door and get their passports stamped.

A group of Reception children worked collaboratively today to create a fantastic airport in the construction area. Tomorrow they are going to add some aeroplanes. Great teamwork Reception!

In science today Year 3 looked at how magnets attract or repel. We then created our own compass with a magnet. We were fascinated to see how the magnet span around on the water to always face north.

Year 3 have been learning a poem about plastic. We used tone of voice, expression and actions to put across our views.

Year 3 have been learning the story of The Prodigal Son in RE so we decided to use our English skills to write it in our own words. We are so proud of our work and we worked so hard.

Reception have loved learning about Chinese New Year last week. Last Friday they made Chinese food and had a go at eating with chopsticks. They also entertained the rest of the school with their dragon dance as they visited each class.

On Monday, Year 2 learned how Jesus cared for the sick and how we can follow his example. Through role-play, we explored the Sacrament of the Sick and its power to bring comfort and healing. 📷📷

Wow, we have some talented architects at St Augustine's. In preparation for today, there has been lots of hard work. The class have been: planning their castles, creating nets for their prototypes and learning about different joins. The children were so excited.

Congratulations to our Year 3 gymnasts who were awarded silver medals for their amazing floor and vault routines. The children have had a fabulous afternoon of gymnastics fun!

Don’t forget this Friday is NSPCC Number Day. Children are welcome to come in number themed fancy dress, engage in number based fun and any donations can be made via ParentPay 📷

Thank you to our fabulous PTFA for organising this. We can’t wait to see the children at Friday’s disco💃💃🕺🕺

As part of our geography topic of volcanoes and our science topic of rocks year 3 went on a hunt around school for rocks to identify if they were igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic.
