Please can we ask Year 6 parents/carers to check their child’s Whats App groups that you are aware of the content of what your child is saying to others and who they are communicating with.

Creative Writing @ Adams Grammar School with a group of Yr5 children!

With a sense of excitement, the children of NJS arrived finally at the imposing gates of Adams Grammar School.

As they began to write, their faces were full of concentration. Pens moving at high speed as ink began to flow. An image of a bone chilling castle was there on display.

’Describe the setting using exciting adjectives,’ was the clear instruction.

Lets begin…

’The obsidian darkness, the sound of the owl’s hooting. Creating an unsettling feeling as moonlight shone, illuminating side of the huge grey castle wall’.

Composed by the Yr5 writers!
