Rowan Class - where do I start!  Your engagement with home learning has been absolutely incredible and I have really enjoyed receiving pictures and emails of your brilliant learning.

Email to Aaron: I love your science experiment that you have been working on.  Why do you think that Sprite did not work as well?  Email response from Aaron: I think ,because Sprite has di...

Tips for using this blog

Hi Rowan Class,  Hope that you are all well?  For those of you who like me are learning all about blogs I thought I'd point out the search option.  As I add more posts, you will find it harder to scroll through old posts.  If you use the search option (at the top right hand side of the blog) you will be able to add in keywords e.g: science and it will bring up these posts for you.   Hope this helps.

We must find him or the train can't start."  All the guards and all the porters and the stationmaster's daughters They are searching high and low, Saying "Skimble where is Skimble for unless he's very nimble Then the Night Mail just can't go." At 11.42 then the signal's nearly due And the passengers are frantic to a man -  Then Skimble will appear and he'll saunter to the rear: He's ...
