What a pleasure taking Year 5 swimming today! Seeing nerves turn into determination and then the pride of individuals after they achieved something they didn't think they could...amazing! It's why we teach. Bring on the next 2 weeks! Sarah Murphy @MegMitchellMCA Mayflower Academy

Are there any Katherine Rundell fans out there who have read The Explorer? We are hooked on this book! My class have a question: How do you pronounce this creatures name? 🦥 Abacaxi aka Baca 🦥 Children's Laureate Reading for Pleasure 🧶 @evevollansMCA Mayflower Academy #edutwitter

This morning, I asked my maths group to show me what they had learnt about angles this week. One of these 2 had a misconception, so the other coached her through it using models and clear explanations. So wonderful to see. #MCAY5 Mayflower Academy Siobhan Bradshaw sarahsandeyMCA

A very worthwhile CPD session today as phases got together to moderate pupil's writing. Challenging conversations, appropriate tools and time well spent identifying next steps for even better writing here at Mayflower Academy.

Fantastic focus as we start the morning in year 5. We are finishing off our Romero Britto art work by outlining the patterns with paint marker pens. Using new tools ordered specifically for the task which arrived just in time! 😅Jessica Ryan Sarah Murphy Mayflower Academy

It has been absolutely amazing to see the affects our DT has had on our pupils in year 5. They have had so many questions about sewing and have been inspired to explore it more at home. Also, great team work and peer support shown. Sarah Murphy Kelly King MCA Mayflower Academy

Pupils at Mayflower Academy and Mayflower Nursery played over 300 games on Spelling Shed 🐝🌈 yesterday!! This is a fantastic start to the term - well done everyone! Let's try and get it even higher by the end of this evening. I wonder who's going to be at the top of the league by Friday?
