Year 6

On Wednesday 5th March, Year Six were lucky enough to have a visit from Mr Uppal and Mr Warren from the Albion Foundation. They came to us and we did an inference activity based on the book Brooksie by Neil Arksey. We really enjoyed inferring what we could find out the two main characters - Brooksie and Mr Mackay. After this we used what we found out to draw the character.  The Albion Foundation also gifted us a range of diverse books to add to our library. Thank you!

On Tuesday 28th January, we had a bedtime story event after school. We dressed in our pyjamas, read books and had biscuits and cocoa. What a cosy time! Reading and relaxation...perfect!  

Chartwells Workshop.

A  few weeks ago, Year Six took part in a workshop ran by the food caterers - Chartwells. During our 'Time to Move' workshop, we looked at different ways we can move our body and exercise. We discussed the impact this had on our mental health. We also discussed the different food groups and the way they affect our body. After a discussion on the way sugar releases into our body, we got to try some chocolate houmous - that the lady made in front of us. Some of us loved the apple dipped in the houmous, some of us weren't so keen!

Science

We have been looking at classification in plants, animals and microorganisms. As part of this we are conducting an observation over time. Here is the start of our experiment. We wonder what might happen?

As part of our Thematic we have been studying The Americas. Take a look at our maps of North American and all the countries we researched. 

ART WEEK!

For Art Week this year, we studied that artwork of Banksy. We practised stencilling and printing before designing and creating our own version of Banksy's art work.
