A new addition to Stanmore School
A little bit of rain did not deter Birch class from pond dipping, in the school pond, as part of their longitudinal study in science. To their surprise the pond was teeming with frogspawn. It takes frogspawn roughly three weeks to hatch after spawning and each tadpole is around 12mm and brown in colour.
Birch class will keep the pond under close observation and report when the first tadpoles hatch.
The children have written some very entertaining playscripts for a short Pixar animation, ‘The chess game.’ So many children excelled that Mrs Taylor awarded many Headteacher’s merit for their excellent writing.
Year 3/ 4 have been busy learning their lines, practicing the songs and collecting costumes for their Ancient Egyptian production which they will perform at the end of the month.
