Rockstars and Robots Day at Drapers Mills 🎸🤖 What a fantastic day! We were blown away by the wonderful outfits – thank you so much to our pupils and families for all the effort. Everyone looked amazing. Our pupils have had a brilliant time playing Times Table Rockstars and Numbots, practising their times tables, developing mental addition and subtraction skills, and working on subitising. Each year group also explored a job that involves maths, with pupils taking on roles as shopkeepers, postal workers, chefs, builders, sports coaches, and even financial analysts. A fun, exciting day full of learning – well done everyone! 🌟

What a day to remember for our Year 6 pupils! ✨ A few weeks ago, we stepped back in time to experience World War II Day, and what an incredible journey it was. The children rolled up their sleeves to bake wartime treats – carrot cookies and jam tarts 🥕🥧 – before getting creative making their own gas masks. Our classrooms were transformed into a fascinating WW2 museum, filled with old artefacts and carefully curated displays that brought history to life. The pupils shared stories, asked thoughtful questions, and showed real respect for the past. The afternoon took a dramatic turn as we experienced a mock air raid, giving everyone a powerful insight into what life was like on the Home Front, before ending the day on a high with a joyful VE Day party 🎶🎉 – celebrating peace, resilience and togetherness. A huge well done to our brilliant Year 6 historians for their enthusiasm and curiosity. History truly came alive! ❤️
