YR6LD News @RF
Thu 05 Jun 2025Year 6LD @RF Explores the Exciting World of 3D Modeling!
This term in Computers, Year 6LD have been diving into the fascinating world of 3D modeling — creating digital objects that you can spin, resize, and combine in a virtual space!
The unit began with learning how to navigate a 3D environment. The children practised moving, resizing, and duplicating objects to get comfortable with working in three dimensions. It’s a bit like playing with digital building blocks!
Next, they discovered how to make hollow objects using placeholders — a cool technique that lets them create more realistic models. Using these new skills, Year 6LD then designed a desk tidy by combining different shapes, putting their creativity and problem-solving skills to the test.
One of the exciting parts was learning about grouping and ungrouping objects, which helps make managing complex models much easier. This led to the highlight of the unit: each child planned, developed, and evaluated their very own 3D model of a building!
The children are proud of their creations and have enjoyed bringing their ideas to life on the computer screen. This project has not only boosted their tech skills but also helped them think like real designers and architects.
Well done, 6LD — the future of 3D design looks bright with you!

Fri 23 May 2025Year 4 EB@RF: Half Term Highlights!
As we come to the end of another busy and exciting half term, Y4EB@RF have so much to celebrate and be proud of!
In English, we’ve been diving into the world of poetry, using the weather as our inspiration. From stormy skies to sunshine days, the children have created vivid imagery and powerful verses, exploring how words can paint a picture and stir emotions. We even performed some of our poems aloud – our classroom definitely thundered with creativity!
Over in History, we’ve travelled back in time to learn about the fascinating Maya Civilization. From discovering their writing system and number patterns to understanding their beliefs and daily life, the children have been curious historians, asking thoughtful questions and making great connections with what we already know about ancient cultures.
In Art, we’ve been inspired by the bold and colourful work of Frida Kahlo. The children have created their self-portraits, experimenting with symbolism and learning how artists express identity and emotion. It’s been amazing to see how personal and powerful their artwork has become. See our work below.
In Science, we’ve been busy exploring states of Matter. Through hands-on investigations, we’ve learned how solids, liquids and gases behave, and what causes changes between them. From melting chocolate to watching water evaporate, our budding scientists have been full of curiosity and enthusiasm.
And of course, we’ve been rising to the challenge in Mathematics! Whether it’s tackling tricky word problems, mastering multiplication, or exploring new ways to reason and explain our thinking, Year 4 have shown resilience and a fantastic growth mindset. It’s been brilliant to see so many ‘lightbulb moments’ as confidence has grown.
I am incredibly proud of how hard everyone has worked and how much progress has been made. A well-deserved break is ahead—have a restful and fun half term!
Well done, Year 4!

Mon 19 May 2025What a quacking week in Nursery! 🐣🦆
We’ve been learning how to care for ducklings — discovering what they need to stay happy and healthy. The children have loved gently holding them, showing their amazing character strengths of bravery, exploring, and learning along the way.
They also explored capacity through fun water play, worked together to build a life-sized duckling from LEGO, and got stuck into so many other feather-tastic activities.
From teamwork to curiosity, we’re flying high with our learning this term!#NurseryLife #EarlyYearsFun #DucklingsInNursery #CharacterStrengths #MyHappyMind #Bravery #Explorers #LittleLearners #CapacityPlay #Teamwork #LearningThroughPlay #LEGOChallenge #FeatheredFriends #QuackersFun
