Science Show - November 2022
Abbie Ayre loves going to her Gran’s after school. This is because there’s something very different about Abbie’s Grandma. Abbie’s Grandma is Dr Rosemary Ayre, an incredible scientist with a shed full of experiments and adventures. Together with her friend Charlie and Gran’s supercomputer “Derek 5000” they investigate the causes of air pollution and what they can do to make their world a safer, cleaner more sustainable place.......
Our ear five pupils were very lucky to see the Abbie Ayre and the Shed of Science performance last week. The show helped is designed to:
o Raise our awareness of the potential consequences of poor air quality on our health and well-being
o Identify the causes of poor air quality
o Understand ways we can reduce negative impact on air quality
o Motivate us to improve their air quality by walking, cycling or using public transport, especially for the daily journey to school
o Investigate the positive benefits of using sustainable travel
o Inspire us to motivate others to make a positive change on air quality
What part can you play in improving our environment?

AUTHOR VISIT: CHRISSIE SAINS - MAY 2022
We were so lucky to have Chrisie Sains,a talented author and member of our local community visit us here at Sunnymede Junior School.. Through her lively, interactive assembly and workshops, Chrissie inspired a number of our budding writers to consider a career in writing. The children asked some really thoughtful questions and enjoyed having the opportunitiy to have a chat with her over coffee, as well as having a copy of her book signed. Take a look at some photos from her visit...
..
The children enjoyed taking an object from the 'What if?' box and thinking of a question to kick-start a creative idea
for a story. What a brilliant way to get inspiration!
