Yesterday Year 3 carried out an investigation into the relationship between how tall we are, and how long our arm bone (ulna) is. We predicted whether we thought the tallest children would have the longest ulnas or not, then investigated to find out if we were correct. The children measured very accurately and worked well in teams to gather all their data.

A bumper edition of the Quinton Quill this week, so please do take time to read about the wonderful things children have been up to, and to learn more about upcoming events such as class assemblies, the PTA Halloween disco, and celebration of learning.  Have a wonderful weekend! I'll see some of you at the cross country race in the morning. 

Year 3/4 Football Tournament Last night, Quinton hosted the Year 3/4 football tournament, bringing together eager young players for an exciting evening of sport and teamwork. Many of our pupils were taking part in their very first tournament, and they showed great enthusiasm and determination throughout the matches. A standout moment came when Theo scored a fantastic goal, thrilling the crowd and boosting team spirit. The Quinton team worked hard during every game and ultimately finished in a respectable fifth place overall. While the competition was tough, the experience was enjoyable for all involved, and it was wonderful to see our students developing their skills, building confidence, and supporting one another on and off the pitch. Well done to all our players and thank you to everyone who came out to cheer them on!

A MESSAGE FROM OUR FABULOUS PTA... Further details on exciting upcoming events will be provided in today's Quinton Quill :) 

This week Year 5 joined in with many other schools to take part in a live interview with an engineer. Colonel Lamb talked to us about his role at UK Space Command sending satellites into space. He talked about the key values - Curiosity, Resilience and Vision that help him in his job, and how it is important to always ask questions and never give up on your goals!
