Amazing Christmas Jumpers year 5!

The boys and girls have made such a huge effort with their handwriting this term and, as you can see, it is really paying off and we can’t wait to share more of their fantastic work. 
 

We had a brilliant day wearing our Christmas jumpers to school. 
 

We are grateful to ‘Green Watch’ who visited our class to help us learn more about modern day firefighting as part of our Great Fire of London topic. What a fantastic afternoon we had!

Year 6 enjoyed their day at Furness College today. They took part in lots of exciting activities; tending to patients and feeling pigs' lungs in the clinical suite, playing table tennis in the Sports Hall, completing a virtual welding challenge, styling hair in the hairdressing salon as well as…

It is sooooo cold we decided to do an experiment and see if we could freeze some bubbles. It worked. We watched them slowly freeze then collapse on themselves. Very exciting!

Very well done year 5 at your karate grading. Thank you Natalie, they have really enjoyed it. 

Today we did exercise with a difference. The children had to pedal fast enough to power a blender to make smoothies

Thank you so much Robin Hamm for coming in to talk to year 5 about the Christmas story. The children really enjoyed thinking about and talking about different perspectives and accounts of Christmas. 

Our spider plants have been sprouting lots of new runners so we have re-potted them and they will be coming to new homes with the children of year 5. 

Today we have been investigating magnetic force, making predictions and looking at which materials are magnetic 

This half term we have been learning all about digital photography. We know how to take a good photograph, if we should take it in portrait or landscape format, to take a selfie and to edit our pictures to enhance them! Lots of budding photographers in the making!
