Our Y6 children are loving being part of WW2 week this week. From jiving to making Anderson shelters, designing children’s games and now digging for victory in a local allotment.
We are providing real life experiences of what life would be like during the war.
Later this week we will be celebrating VE Day and the children are planning to bake and prepare their own food for the party.
Well done to all our Y5 and Y6 children who took part in our recent production. The children, once again, were outstanding. We may be biased, but we know Mortimer has talent.
Thank you for all your support for both performances and for helping our children to dress for the occasion. The main choir, in particular, were certainly dressed for the occasion.
Y4 had a fabulous trip to the farm this term. This trip reinforces their geography curriculum but also links with work related learning. This is a working farm and children learn all about how a farmer makes his money.
Our Y6 children, who are moving onto Mortimer Community College, have been working closely with Sunderland Association Football Club to prepare a business presentation about designing trainers.
All the children thoroughly enjoyed this project and it was a lovely link to their new school.

Reception enjoyed their teddy bear picnic for Action Research this afternoon. Money raised will be used for research into childhood illnesses.
Reception had a lovely morning visiting an allotment close to the school. They were able to help with planting and to sample some of the fruit and vegetable growing.
…And like all great gardeners they enjoyed a lovely cool drink and a biscuit in the Sun after their hard work.
Reception had a fabulous day when they visited Blue Reed Aquarium as part of their topic about under the sea.
Y2 have had a fabulous week learning all about castles and designing their own. Here are some photos of 2JG hard at work.
Reception enjoyed a visit from Iain and his lovely pets as therapy dogs on Wednesday.
Iain, who is a head veterinary nurse at Willow Veterinary Centre, talked with the children about how important it is to look after our pets and how they can also help us.
The children loved learning about how Gracie and Maya go into hospitals and hospices to help sick and poorly people feel better.
