Spring Term
World Book Day 2022
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Spring Term
Wow! We were amazed by the Y5 children's outfits and imaginations today, as we celebrated World Book Day. They all looked brilliant. Year 5 had a great day taking part in different Book Day activities.
Safari Phil and Spiky Dave Visit!
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Spring Term
Year 5 had some very interesting visitors in their classrooms this week! A visit from Safari Phil and Spiky Dave was thoroughly enjoyed by all. The children were given the opportunity to handle a range of exotic animals from South America. As well as handling these animals, the children found out all about their habitats, adaptations and how to protect them.
We are Artists!
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Spring Term
As part of our study on South America , we have been looking at work of artists who base their paintings on rainforests and jungles . The children have been busy mixing their own 'rainforest' colours, creating simple collages and doing observational drawings.
A Taste of South America
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Spring Term
Year 5 children became chefs for a day, when the Classroom Kitchen company came in. All pupils were given the opportunity to help prepare and cook a sweet and savoury dish, both originated from South America. They all had a brilliant time and enjoyed their South American feast to finish.
Marvellous Mapping Skills
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Spring Term
This week we have been using Atlases and Google Maps to improve our map reading skills.
We located the different continents and studied the countries, oceans and landmarks within them.

Children in Need
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Autumn Term
Thank you for all of your kind donations for the Children in Need charity. It was great to see the children in their own clothes, they'd gone to a great effort. Y5 enjoyed taking part in some Pudsey themed activities throughout of the day.
An Afternoon in Space
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Autumn Term
As part of our Science topic 'Earth and Beyond', Year 5 pupils joined Mission Control on an exciting Earth observation mission, which viewed our planet from space and visited the orbiting satellites. The children thoroughly enjoyed participating in this interactive show.
Wrap A Mummy!
Bethany Kendall (bethanykendall) on: Autumn Term
In History, Year 5 have been learning about how and why the Egyptian's mummified the dead. They discovered that there are many interesting steps to the mummification process. They finished this learning journey with a spot of mummification role play!
