What a Busy Week!

On Wednesday, Miss Ballentine and Mrs Mirazi took 12 children from Year 5 and Year 6 as they represented New Islington at a Co-op Primaries Dodgeball Tournament at Co-op Academy Walkden.

The children succeeded together against some tough competition. Out of the 6 teams, we got a first and third place! Well done to the children, who fantastically represented our school (and continued our winning streak!)

On Friday, 10 Year 3 children visited Manchester City’s Academy to take part in a football festival. They played great games (won 2, drew 1 and lost 1) and represented New Islington well.

It was lovely to see how fantastic the children played together against tough competition. 

I think we have some future football stars in the making! Well done!

Year 2 have been working very hard on their homework research topic about pandas. Mrs Mazur has been amazed at the presentation and wide range of facts the children have found out. Here is just a small selection of some of the great work. 

Year 2 are looking at the art of Alice Fox this half term, so they searched in Forest School for natural items that were shaped like letters. 

Bumblebees and Ladybirds have been learning all about the polar regions. This has included painting pictures, small world play, and making igloos.
