eSafety Quiz Show, by Miss Finnigan
Date: 24th Feb 2017 @ 4:20pm
This week the Upper Junior classes created their own eSafety quiz show when the company Lights Camera Action came into school. The children took on different roles, including: TV presenters, camera crew and quiz contestants and each class filmed a different round of the quiz show.
Over the next few weeks, the company will make the videos into an interactive DVD quiz show which we will then be able to play in school.
The children loved this opportunity! Thank you very much for the contributions you made to enable this to go ahead.
Have a look at some pictures below and watch this space for a teaser video of the quiz show...

Problem-Solving Pupils, by Mr Phillips
Date: 22nd Dec 2015 @ 12:48pm
On Friday 4th December, The Happy Puzzle Company visited Northway to challenge the children with maths-based activities. The pupils in Lower Juniors loved their sessions and they clearly had lots of fun trying to tackle each of the problems they were given. Working together in small groups, the activities were designed to help the problem-solving and reasoning skills of the children as well as develop their teamwork. Although some of the pupils thought that the puzzles looked easy to start with, they changed their mind once they started trying to solve them!
