Class DB hosted the first of our SHARE sessions. As part of Suffolk County Council Extended Schools Programme we have started to invite parents to spend time in school with their children. Two of our teaching assistants have been on a County course which looks at organising SHARE activities. Click on the logo to find out more.This first session involved a year 6 class inviting their parents to join them for their Science & ICT afternoon.
The children have been looking at Forces this half term. During the SHARE afternoon the focus was on magnetism. A wide range of investigations were set up with the objectives of understanding that magnetism is a force and practical uses of magnetism.
We had 16 parents for our SHARE afternoon and felt that everybody learnt something about school and magnetism! Hopefully other classes will be able to enjoy similar SHARE sessions throughout the year.
