Welcome to Salmestone Primary School.

This week for Science Week, our Reception children have been learning all about the life cycle of a butterfly. They’ve been carefully observing our real caterpillars as they grow a little more each day, eagerly waiting for the moment they form their chrysalises. The children are fascinated by the changes they’re seeing and are very excited to watch the incredible transformation as the caterpillars evolve into butterflies. 🦋

Year 1 are learning about fractions in maths. To start the topic off, the class explored fractions with a range of shapes by cutting these out and finding half of each shape. Then the children used playdough to make a cupcake and had to demonstrate how to halve the cupcake into two equal parts to share with their partner. After this the children had a go at making a square shape with the playdough and investigating how many different ways a square can be cut into halves. Well done year 1! 🤩
