As part of our English instructions topic, Year 5 have been discussing “How to spread Christmas cheer.” We watched some scenes from Elf whilst drinking hot chocolates. We spoke about the importance of kindness and spreading joy just like Buddy the elf does!
As part of our Earth and Space topic in Science, Year 5 have been researching times of day around the world. We were all very excited watching a live video of Times Square, NYC!
Year 5 had a fantastic afternoon representing the school at the South Tyneside School Sports Network Indoor Athletics Competition. The children got to compete in a range of track and field events.
Year 5 loved No Pens Day! We spent the morning learning some performance poetry, that we later performed to some of our parents and carers.
Our Year 1 and Year 5 pupils had a lovely start to the day sharing breakfast and a book. What a way to show your love of reading.
Year 5 had a really busy day learning about Children In Need and completing a range of tasks linked to this. We even managed to squeeze in some time to practice our oracy skills.
In our Fresh Food, Good Food topic Year 4 designed and made packaging to keep their healthy snack of fruity popcorn fresh.
Our Y5 stargazers spent an unforgettable night under the stars! Telescopes in hand, we were able to see Saturn, Jupiter, shooting stars and the milky way. The Moon was at waxing crescent at a distance of 237,000 miles away when the children viewed it. We will never forget this memorable experience.
Year 5 had a fabulous day at Ryhope Engines Museum with our St Oswald’s penpals.
Year 5 had an amazing afternoon at Gurdwara Siri Guru Singh Sabha.
