Science Competition

2025 Longborough Playground Opera tour of 'The Implausible Potions of Dr Dulcamara’ came to Temple Guiting on the 22nd January.
What it's all about?
The Implausible Potions of Dr Dulcamara, is based on the production of Donizetti’s Elixir of Love that tells the tale of haughty Adina, loved by shy Nemorino, who's intimidated by the boastful Belcore - all of whom are hoodwinked by the unscrupulous Dr Dulcamarra. Love, longing, lies and gossip, plus some magic potions and a lot of confusion make this story a brilliant one for children; remarkably not one drop of blood is shed this time!

British Science Week

Today we carried out three science experiments

Science experiments

Mug drop

Balloon pop

Floating teabag.

Each had a really interesting aspect of science to them. The children have been asked to work out the science behind the experiment. An email has been sent to parents asking them to help their children research the science behind one experiment. A competition has been set up to see who can come up with the correct scientific theory behind the experiment. A winner will be drawer from the correct entries. Please encourage your child to participate in this activity and enjoy finding things out together.

Below are videos of the first 2 experiments. The 3rd didn't work so here is a link to what should have happened.

Science Day

The whole school has had a great day evolved in science workshops with Diatom Dave from Fun Science Cheltenham. A good introduction ahead of next week, which is British Science Week. Here are some photos, please as your child about their day.

Children's Mental Health Week

This week the children have completed different activities to help support good mental health. We have discussed the benefits of reading, cooking, listening to music, emerging yourself in art (Class 2) or using your skills to complete activities that would make great hobbies (Class 4 building vehicles). We have shown the children how square breathing and finger breathing. We also looked at communication when trying to build lego from others instructions. They have been given the task of going out into the community and pass on this skill to friends, family, peers at clubs and neighbours. We have set the target of reaching out to 100 people and giving them the a valuable skill to help support their mental health. Please enjoy the photos below.
