DT Week – Wheels and Axles
This week we have been building bathing machines for Queen Victoria. We know that bathing machines were on the beach for people to get changed in a long time ago. We have also been learning about wheels, axles, axle holders and chassis. A chassis is the bottom of the vehicle that everything fixes onto. The axle hold the wheels in the right place and the axle holder holds the axle. A wheel is like a circle but 3D and they make the bathing machine go forwards and backwards. We had a really good week!

Here are some photos of all our hard work.
Easter Egg Fun
In Pimhill Mrs Foster hid 300 paper eggs with the numbers 1-10 on. We had to find one of each number and order them. If we completed the challenge we got a real Easter Egg. It was the best morning in Pimhill. Mrs Foster was pleased with the way we helped each other to make sure we all got an egg.
The Queen’s Jubilee Green Canopy
To start our celeberations for The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee we planted 5 trees as part of The Queen’s Green Canopy.
In the rain Pimhill went out to dig the holes.
The sun shone when represenatives from each class came to plant a tree with Kris our Forest School lead and James Reynolds our govenor.
Lara led us in prayer .
In the afternoon Pimhill finished the planting and watered the trees.
Thank you to Albrighton Estate who donated our trees.
Design and Technology Making a vehicle for our Easter ducks
In Pimhill we looked at different wheeled vehicles. What makes them move? We discovered they needed a chassis and wheels and axel. We made a design brief and made a vehicle. Our Friends in Wrekin came to evaluate our vehicles and test them out with us.
Ukraine Day!
Thank you to all the parents, staff and children who supported us for Ukraine Day!
Everyone looked amazing wearing yellow and blue.
We were visited by Marianna and her friend Oksana. We learnt about their charity work and how they are supporting those from Ukraine.
We also learnt a few words in Ukrainian.
Thank you for your donation, we had a great day.
Easter Egg Homework!
This week I would like you to decorate an egg for Easter. It’s up to you what theme you choose for your egg(s). One year my son created the ‘Eggvengers!’
Please bring in your decorated eggs on Friday 8th April. There will be prizes!
Ukranian Appeal
Thank you so much for all the kind donations we have received in school.
The children have been making sunflowers and sending their thoughts and prayers to the people of Ukraine.
Mariana, who visited the children with Oxanna in school this week will be collecting today. Oxanna will then drive all our goodies across Europe to where they are most in need.
Thank you once again for all your support and kind donations.

Mothering Sunday
Thank you to the girls who represented the school at Leaton church today for Mothering Sunday. They all wrote their own poems and prayers and shared them at the front of the church. It was a beautiful service with involvement in the sermon from the children also.
