Read MoreWhat did you enjoy most about the Easter experience?
Published 25/03/22First and foremost, congratulations to all of Year 5 for their incredible efforts and preparation for their Easter production, which they performed for the first time in front of the whole school on Friday morning. They are due to perform twice to parents and families next week, and as a Year 5 team we are so unbelievably proud of them for the hard work and dazzling performances put in – everyone in the audience was extremely emotional! Special mentions must go to: Caleb for playing Jesus with so much passion, and singing beautifully; Elenia, for stepping in at the last minute for Anvee who was unwell on Friday, all the soloists who sang so confidently by themselves; the technical crew for lighting and sound and of courses everyone in the production for performing so well as a team.
In maths this week, we finished our unit on fractions and in English we have been writing our own free verse poetry. Next week, we will be baking our own individual vegan apple pies with our own personally improved recipes for D&T – a delicious thing to look forward to!
Read MoreHow is hydroelectric power renewable?
Published 17/03/22This week, it was Science week! We learned all about challenging stereotypes of what scientists can be like, and how there are so many successful scientists who are of every gender, skin colour and religion. Anyone can do science! In Geography, we had a big science link this week, and we have been continuing on our journey of rivers, but this week focussing on how rivers can be used sustainably as a renewable energy resource. Next week, we will be making our own hydroelectric dam models and still request as many 4 or 8 pint milk bottles so that as many of us can do this experiment as possible.
Year 5 have also been completing their Mathematics booklets - testing their knowledge in arithmetic and reasoning. We have been busily practising our Easter production, and the singing and acting is really taking shape, we are all extremely excited to perform for you all in the last week of term! We still have a few children left to complete some due to various illnesses last week, but we are really so proud of all he hard work the children have put in to these booklets, and we look forward to discussing these with you at parents evening next week.
