Friday morning reflection… and I am completely buzzing!🌟 Across all three @CATAcademyTrust primary schools, our children have smashed national averages in every KS2 SATs measure for both ARE and Greater Depth. 👏 Three schools. Three identities. One incredible team. 💫

Year 6 have got fully stuck in to their new English unit this week. Starting off by working in teams to develop for and against arguments about things they feel passionate about. Great group work, oracy skills and points of view Year 6! #CarltonCurriculum

A new STEM challenge at our Rackets Cubed Padel Tennis Club! 🏗️💡 Using only lolly sticks and rubber bands, children experimented with different joins before designing the tallest tower possible. Who will build the highest structure next week? 🚀 #STEM #MPSPE #MPSDT

⏳ Year 2 travelled back to 1666 to explore life during the Great Fire of London! 🔥 They became archaeologists, investigating artefacts and discovering their uses, before trying quill and ink writing just like Samuel Pepys! ✍️📜 @CATAcademyTrust #CarltonCurriculum

Year 6 Stan Lee put their persuasive writing skills to the test by convincing their classmates that their chosen monarch was the greatest in British history! 👑✍️ Pupils crafted compelling arguments before confidently presenting their speeches to the class! #MPSHistory

What a memorable start to the new English unit @Carlton_MillsPS. 🐻🎨 'If we're kind and polite, the world will be right' is a wonderful message to accompany a learning journey inspired by one of children's most loved characters. #CarltonCurriculum

🐻Year 2 had a fantastic Hook Day exploring our new main character, Paddington Bear! We followed clues to discover his identity, explored animals native to Peru and we even painted our own Paddingtons, using forks to create textured fur! A wonderful start to our English unit! 🐾

A huge thank you to @ZooLabUK for helping Year 2 bring our Animals and Habitats topic to life in true animal style! 🐍🦎🐢 We met lots of fascinating animals and discovered why their habitats are perfect for them and why they couldn’t survive in others. 🐾🌿 @CATAcademyTrust

🍎 Year 2 have been writing independent retellings of Handa’s Surprise! 📚 We’ve explored time connectives, adverbs, past-tense verbs and adjectives. We even tasted the fruits to inspire our descriptions! The result? 24 amazing stories we’re proud of! 🌟✍️ @CATAcademyTrust
