In March when we couldn’t go to school, or go to the park or even visit our friends or family.  we decided to spend lots of time in the garden. At the start of lockdown we planted some sunflower seeds, I wanted to have something to look after and watch grow during our time away from schoo...

I start my day with a lovely breakfast, I then brush my teeth, wash my face and get dressed.

To start off our new ‘Keen to be Green’ topic, Year 5 have been making plastic bottle ‘eco bricks’ as a way to begin to understand how alternative plastic waste can have a positive impact on our lives.

The cheeky little elf has been up to lots of mischief in our school. His name is Cracker and he did some crazy stuff in our classroom. He came to visit us on Thursday 5th December and in the morning he had lots of silly jokes hidden in our trays, the jokes were actually pretty funny.

Our new teachers are Mrs Hubbard and Miss Thomas we think they are great teachers as they are really nice and helpful

Last week Year 5 designed and made parachutes to test which fabric made the best one. We also investigated the different forces, which were: air resistance, gravity and friction.

We got up really early last Monday morning for our residential trip to Norfolk.  We had to be at school ready for the bus to leave at 6.45am!! 

This term in year 5 we have been learning about David Hockney and his astonishing art work (Pop Art). We've learnt all about his life.
