We are extremely proud of our kitchen.
All of our children have the opportunity to cook as part of their Design and Technology. The kitchen is a fantastic resource for our school, enriching experiences for the children at Clapham.
The children cook a range of food, everything from:-
The MESS (Make, Explore, Solve, Sketch) is a dedicated art and science room. The children have produced some wonderful work in it, some projects working with local professional artists.
Carl’s Outdoor Learning (COL) is based on the Forest School initiative, where children bring their learning outside. Our aim is to provide new experiences to encourage the children in areas of confidence, team building, trying new activities and working independently. They have to opportunity to use natural materials, build dens, use saws and drills and toast marshmallows!
Extending on from our own outdoor learning we have linked up with an exciting local eco-restoration project at Leasowe Farm just outside Radford Semele. In February 2023 Year 5 helped plant a Children’s Forest at Leasowe Farm. It was fantastic to see how much the trees last year’s year 5 planted have now grown. This is a great environmental project the children are a part of. The trees and the species they support will be tended by the children over the years to come, supported by their families and communities. To read the planting report, please click here.
We are learning about the properties of circles and triangles. We used our 2D flat shapes to create pictures with our partners!
