Afan Gymnastics Centre
Here we are enjoying ourselves at Afan gymnastics centre. It has really helped us to develop our skills.
The Canal immersion week
We have been using the ‘Talk Write’ approach by Pie Corbett to teach literacy. The following video shows some of the immersion week experiences the children had.
St Fagans
We recently visited St Fagans to learn about Victorian life. We spent time in the Victorian school and learnt about life in a Victorian mill.
Alfred Russel Wallace
Our history topic this term is to investigate the lives of people from our locality in the nineteenth century. One important visitor to Neath during this period was the famous biologist Alfred Russel Wallace. In October we watched a performance about his life and then visited the museum to learn more about his work. In the video you will be able to see some of the interesting learning experiences the children had.
The Tunnel Immersion week
In the following video you will see some of the interesting learning experiences that helped the children learn the story.

Well done to these children in Year 5 and 6. We have a community link with Morgan Sindall who are renovating the Gwyn Hall. Everyone painted pictures designed to go on the hoardings while the building work is going on. These are the nine winning entries so watch out for them appearing on the white boards very soon.
