Andy Goldsworthy Art

The Rabbits and the Squirrels learnt all about Harvest and they made some Autumn artwork in the style of Andy Goldsworthy. They are so beautiful so we put them up on the window and to decorate the classroom. #aspire #harvest #andygoldsworthy

In English Squirrels have been researching information about the different trees in Sherwood Forest. We are making our own fact file containing all the information about each tree 🌳 🐿 #aspire #forestrangers

Year 4 Tigers 🐯 We have been busy making our persuasive posters to get people to join our Army! We need men to help fight the creature with Beowulf. We need YOU!

In PE the Rabbits have been doing some dinosaur yoga. They greeted the dinosaur with ‘namaste’

Year 4 Tigers During our history we have been looking into the life of Anglo Saxons and what they were known for. As farming is one of their legacies, we have been using artefacts and thinking about what we think they are, how they are made and what they could have been used for. We then wrote our own job applications to be an Anglo Saxon farmer, cook, blacksmith or hunter.

In geography the Rabbits and Squirrels used Digimaps on the laptops to find Boston. They then went on to look at it in aerial view and as an ordanance survey map. We then looked at the physical features we could find. We found some woods, the River Witham and fields on both versions of the maps.

Lincolnshire Day – Thursday 1st October 2020

At Carlton Road Academy, we celebrated Lincolnshire Day on Thursday 1st October 2020 for the first time. Lincolnshire Day is celebrated every year on the 1st October and celebrates the rich history of the county.

To celebrate the day, we had a non-uniform day and encouraged everyone to wear something yellow to celebrate the term ‘Yellowbelly’ or a colour on the Lincolnshire flag (red, blue, green).

In school, the children learnt about the origins of Lincolnshire Day, the meaning of the colours on the Lincolnshire flag and created their own Lincolnshire flag.
