Y5/6 had their road safety workshop this morning. They were reminded about the designated safe places to cross the road and where they can cross if there are no safe places near by. These reminders were also partnered with the importance of the green cross code and how to stay safe when cycling.
Following an afternoon of hard work clearing out the beds, Y5 enjoyed roasting marshmallows as a well-deserved treat!
Y5 spent the afternoon clearing out the raised beds in preparation for spring term’s ‘Sow, Grow, Farm’ topic. Great effort, Y5!
Y5 began their Bikeability week today, starting on the yard as they tested their bikes followed by working on their cycling, signalling and breaking skills.
Y5 took part in CBBC’s live lesson for Anti-bullying Week around the theme of ‘Choose Respect’. We reflected lots on how we can choose to be respectful towards others, especially when conflict arises. Well done, Y5!
Y5 absolutely LOVED our trip to Northumberland to learn about the areas landscape and to go stargazing! The collage doesn’t show the whole picture of the experience, mainly because we couldn’t take photos during the stargazing itself (other than the one you can see of the Moon), but ask any of the children and they’ll tell you all sorts about the trip! Well done, Y5 – you were an absolute pleasure to take on this rich experience!
Y5 loved their trip to Hebburn Library on Monday and all have new books for the rest of the term. Bring on every more reading for pleasure over the coming weeks!
Year 5 had a fab Forest School session last week with their friends from Bede Burn. We explored our new DT topic, looking at pneumatics and creating pneumatic systems. We thought about our sticky knowledge from our previous learning around states of matter and forces, and used this to help us. Great work Year 5!
Y5 had a fantastic time at the Oriental Museum in Durham yesterday to launch their Dynamic Dynasties topic, building their substantive and disciplinary knowledge in the morning before competing art and oracy-based tasks in the afternoon. Well done, Y5!
