The Dinos have started their computing unit looking at how to control an onscreen “turtle” by giving precise instructions. Our first step was just to have a go and see what we could do. Trickier stuff to follow. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpscomputing #dcpscore
The Y2 Dinos paid a visit to St Mary’s Church last week to see what it would be like for a baby to be baptised. Reverend Kim kindly baptised Kiki Lala alongside her “parents” and “godparents”. The children had loads of questions and loved seeing first hand what they’d learned about in class. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsre #dcpslotc #dcpscore
Our first Dino to achieve a 10 club badge 👏🏻 We have several more children snapping at his heels, keen to be times table whizz kids. #dcpsdinosaur #dcpsmaths #dcpscore
Year 4 Giraffes have had great start to their new STEM unit of Electricity. We starting by thinking about what we already knew about Electricity and then started some research into influential scientists such as Thomas Edison and Joesph Swan. We used all of our facts to create class posters. #dcpsgiraffe #dcpsstem #dcpscore #dcpsnetworker #dcpscomputing
Each Tuesday the nursery children explore maths through cooking, we learn about shapes, size, weights and practise our counting. We do this in small groups so that we can take our time and learn new skills. As the Nursery children have been exploring the song five currant buns this week they worked together to make currant buns. We hope you enjoyed them at home today..if they made it that far? ( Those who didn’t make currant buns this week will have their opportunity next Tuesday. ) #dcpscaterpillar #dcpseyfs #dcpspshe #dcpsmusic #dcpsmaths
Very yummy 😋
Lots of team work needed at forest school… good thing we are all such good friends who help each other in nursery! #dcpscaterpillar #dcpslocr #dcpspshe

Ahoy me matey! Reception are LOVING the new pirate theme this half term! Our story of the week is Pirates love Underpants and today we have been super busy doing all things ‘piratey’ From making treasure maps to excavating numbers in the sand, creating our own ocean water washes and designing traps for the pirates, it’s all been going on! #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpscore
The full time nursery children loved toasting their marshmallows over a real fire today in Nursery. I was so impressed at how well the children had remembered our fire pit rules from last week and they did an amazing job keeping themselves safe. Today we also made our own marshmallow play dough and enjoyed using the diggers to fill and empty their trucks with cereal #dcpsEYFS #dcps30hours #dcpscaterpillar #dcpspshe #dcpslotc #dcpsstem

This week the full time Nursery children helped our puppet Olly plan his first camping trip. We planned everything he might need to bring with him on his camping trip and had fun making our own campfire crafts. The children helped set up his tent and went fishing in our water tray. We gathered sticks for our campfire and discussed how we would keep ourselves safe around a campfire as we pretended to toast some marshmallows. We are looking forward to next week when we will actually toast some marshmallows around our campfire for real #dcpsEYFS #dcpscaterpillar #dcps30hours #dcpslotc #dcpscore #dcpspshe
Amazing couldn’t wish for a better school nursery for my little Ashton 💜
Year 5 have started using their new Maths programme ‘Freckle’. They enjoyed working through the questions, collecting the coins and unlocking items in their shop. They all have their logins for this, so could do some of the maths games at home and impress you with their knowledge! #dcpsdolphin #dcpswhale #dcpscore #dcpsmaths
As part of the Bon Jovi unit, the children did a lot of work on clapping out the rhythm and then playing musical patterns on the glockenspiels. They did really well on this unit and are starting work on their ‘Rap’ unit. If you were walking past Year 5 on Thursday afternoon, you would have heard them starting to learn the words of the theme tune to, ‘The Fresh Prince of Belair’. #dcpsdolphin #dcpscore #dcpsmusic
Year 5 have been doing a music unit all around Bon Jovi’s song, ‘Living on a prayer’. They have enjoyed appraising, then learning the song and rocking out especially to the chorus. #dcpsdolphin #dcpscore #dcpsmusic
Love it well done 👍

Year 5 have been enjoying their PE lessons this half term. They are being great networkers and working as a team to carry out adventurous activities. So far they’ve had to lead their partner blind folder by using the touch of a finger or clapping, swapped hoops with a friend on their team without speaking, before another person has taken the hoop and moved around the room to find the letters corresponding to numbers, in the fastest time, before trying to make as many words from the letters as they could. #dcpsdolphin #dcpscore #dcpspe
Today, we say goodbye and good luck to our beautiful Mrs Plant. She has worked her socks off here at Denbigh for over 16 years, supporting our children and always doing so with a smile on her face! Her hilarious and kind-hearted nature means she is extremely popular with staff and children alike and we will all miss her so much. In honour of our Queen Planty, we held a 'Judilee' in Early Years today to celebrate everything we love about her.
We will miss you Planty and wish you tons of luck in your retirement.
Enjoy watching our 'Mini Jude' re-enact her greatest moments here at Denbigh x

After spotting some ice on the yard last week the full time nursery children have loved investigating what ice is and where it comes from. They were set the challenge to free some toys stuck in the ice as they investigated how they could melt the ice the fastest using either hot or cold water or sprinkling salt on it. We had fun painting with ice and noticed that our paper was getting very wet. After discovering that ice is made by freezing water the children decided to make their own ice lollies using a range of fruit juices and smoothies. We of course had to try a range of juices before deciding on what flavour we would like our lolly to be. Today we enjoyed our lollies as part of our snack time which tasted amazing! The nursery children were so impressed with their efforts they have asked to make ice cream next week. #dcpsEYFS #dcpscaterpillar #dcps30hours #dcpsstem #dcpscore #dcpslotc

Reception had lots of fun in NUFC this morning with Robbie. Using hoops, they played a game of Peppa Pig where they had to jump in as many muddy puddles as possible, practicing their jumping skills. After, they played tag but used a ball to catch their opponents! #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpspe #dcpscore #dcpsnufc
In PE this week, Reception used their bodies to create ‘bridges’ and ‘tunnels’. They worked together in pairs to create different types of bridges and practised travelling through by crawling and sliding. #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpsPE
Year 3 Lizards had a brilliant session with NUFC today! Look at us throwing, catching and networking in our teams. #dcpscore #dcpspe #dcpslizard
Below are some useful resources circulated by Northumbria Police to help protect our children through education. #dcpscore
The Dragons love our topic The Great Fire of London. They are absolute experts, ask them anything about it! When? Where? How? They know all the answers. They really enjoyed putting the events in chronological order. Here are their proud, smiley faces with their hard work! #dcpscore #dcpsdragon #dcpstopic

Year 3 were networking this morning to sort out facts and opinions #dcpsenglish #dcpscore #dcpsturtle
This half term, as part of our mini topic of Antarctica/penguins, we have been investigating ice. We were keen to explore different states of water and were fascinated to see what happened when we placed trays of water outside over night. We made predictions and loved exploring the ice that had formed! We quickly realised that the ice wouldn’t last long inside due the heat and discussed how it melted back into water. #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpsSTEM #dcpscore
We are having a super time in PE this half term, focusing on the unit Body Manipulation. We are exploring balance and body control, performing specific movements on command. In this lesson we used hoops to create pathways and practise moving in different ways. #dcpsEYFS #dcpsladybird #dcpsbutterfly #dcpspe
These two boys are gracious in every way and always go the extra mile. Today they asked if they could clean the yard so Mr Robinson wouldn’t have to. 🙏💜🌈🥰 #dcpscore #dcpsgracious

The Whales working hard on their new English unit - writing an Anglo-Saxon legend.

Y6 athletics. #DCPStiger and #dcpslion class worked hard to develop their sprinting and distance running this afternoon. #dcpspe. Some great races between the pupils. #yoursportgames
This week in nursery we have been exploring shape. The full time nursery children began by exploring circles. We threaded circles, printing with circles and even made large circles in the air with ribbon or on a large sheet of paper. We explored the properties of circles as we noticed the tyres outside where round and found that they were the perfect shape for rolling so we set ourselves the challenge to see who could roll their tyre the furthest. We then looked at other shapes and made our own shape monsters. Today we made some shape biscuits which were delicious! #dcpsEYFS #dcpscaterpillar #dcps30hours #dcpsmaths #dcpslotc #dcpscore
In Year 1, we love to get practical in our maths lessons. We have been using Dienes to partition teen numbers this week. The children have loved exploring the visual representations of numbers to 20. #dcpspanda #dcpspolarbear #dcpsmaths

Year 4 Giraffes developed their understanding of paragraphs and newspaper reports today by reordering a report that had got a bit mixed up! We have to read each paragraph and then order these so that the report made sense once again. #dcpsgiraffe #dcpscore #dcpsenglish
In Nursery we are very kind and care about others. This week we have thought about the wildlife in Howdon who need our help this winter. We thought about what they need and designed warm homes for them. We worked together to make lots of cereal bird feeders for all the birds around Howdon, watch out for them on the trees and bushes near school.
We have also spent lots of time exploring shapes! The children loved making shape sandwiches and creating shape pictures! #dcpscaterpillar #dcpsmaths #dcpspshe

Year 6 visited Safetyworks yesterday afternoon to learn about how we can keep ourselves safe in different situations inside and outside of the home. We took part in a range of different scenarios where we had to decide what to do and how the emergency services can help us. We learned lots of helpful tips that will help to keep us safe in the future! #dcpslion #dcpspshe #dcpscore #dcpslotc
Nursery have explored feelings and emotions through the text ‘The colour monster’ We spoke about our feelings, the different monsters from the text, and explored colours in a variety of ways from fabric, pom-poms and pens to even painting ice! #dcpscaterpillar #dcpspshe
