Year 6 have stared their Maafa history unit by researching a country in Africa.
In our first lesson for DT year 6 looked at a variety of processed foods, collecting data on ingredients, food colourings and preservatives and created a table of important information.
Year 5 had a fantastic time celebrating Diversity Day! The class toured different classrooms around the school, each transformed into a window to another culture. They explored the vibrant traditions of South Africa, discovered the rich history of Greece, experienced the beauty of China and learned all about life in Australia. A busy journey around the world – without even leaving the school!
Year 5 explored Expressionism by creating and capturing different facial expressions, discovering how emotions are shown through art.
Year 5 and 6 had a lovely morning singing and dancing along with a live band. A super opportunity to listen to musicians in action.
Year 5 and 6 are exploring comic books. They are creating characters in preparation for designing their own comic strips
Year 5 had a fabulous day at the Centre for Life! We explored several exciting areas of the museum, starting with the brand-new Lightbox area. In the WOW Zone, we had a chance to get hands-on with pulleys – a perfect flashback to our Forces and Mechanisms topic from earlier in the year. We showed off our impressive space knowledge too!
The main focus of the day was a science workshop, packed full of exciting experiments focusing on our current science topic, Properties and Changes of Materials.
Year 5 took part in a cricket workshop before half term, practicing the skills they learnt during our PE lessons at the start of the year
Our Year 5 class kicked off their Bikeability sessions today! We had our helmets checked to ensure a safe and confident start and have focused on recapping key safety tips. Let the cycling adventures begin!
Year 5 enjoyed some outdoor games linked to their French topic, La Partie du Corps
