It's two for one this week for our BSL sign of the week. Play time or break time. What do you call it?

Unfortunately Darren, our lovely lollipop man, is unwell and will be missing from his duties this afternoon and tomorrow morning. Please stay safe and use the zebra crossing in the meantime. Thank you.

Each term, we have a spotlight on careers. Derek visited Lower School to talk all things plumbing this week. The children found lots of things out, including how Derek was involved in the plumbing of a school in Belarus. We were particularly proud of the children's thoughtful questions.

O’Keeffe class had a great time on Italian Day! The children learnt how Italy is a peninsula and that even their Capital City has a city in it! They tried to recreate some historic buildings with Lego and unleashed their inner Da Vinci and Michelangelo by making their own artwork; some on their backs just like Michelangelo did in the Sistine Chapel! The children also made Venetian masks and had a parade, singing Italian songs. Ciao!

Last week Tutankhamun class learned about Stone Age tools and how they evolved. The children even had the chance to have a go at making tools out of clay in class. ⛏️

@damejanetprimaryacademy

Tutankhamun Class thoroughly enjoyed Italian Day! The children learnt about different Italian foods, created menus for their own Italian restaurant and made (and enjoyed!) 'pizzas'. 😊

Last week, Edison class enjoyed dissecting a heart to explore its structure. They investigated the 4 chambers, aorta and vena cava. Great work Edison class!

@damejanetprimaryacademy

We hope we have lots of children who are *excited* to learn this week! 🤩

Sports Connect Community Sessions offer young people a safe, inclusive and engaging space to stay active, build confidence, and connect positively with others in their community for free. These sessions support physical wellbeing, teamwork, and personal development, while encouraging healthy routines outside of school.

Carter class enjoyed making Stone Age tools and weapons in their history lesson this week. ⛏

Ciao! 👋 We’re having a wonderful Italian day here at DJPA! Children have regular Italian lessons so we thought we’d immerse ourselves in the spirit of Italy today- it’s a shame the sun didn’t join us! ☀️ ☔️ Here’s Mrs Crane going all out with her Italian flag and pizza hat! 🍕

A huge thank you to the family members who came in yesterday to share with Attenborough Class to support our project 'Long Ago'. We had a lovely afternoon finding out about when our Grandparents were children and how things have changed. Thank you for playing a special part in our learning.

We hope you are all well and nobody feels poorly this week, but if you are feeling under the weather this sign may come in handy!
