Y6 really enjoyed their history learning when studying the Apollo 11 moon landing! We sequenced the key events in the program and asked political and cultural questions about the space race.

Y6 have been creating ebooks in Book Creator, using our QR codes! We turned our recipes, that we wrote in English, into ebooks. Day 3 and we’re flying!

We’ve been reading, writing and ordering numbers to Ten Million! We have some top mathematicians!

Aaaand we’re off! We’ve been right into our English work by writing recipes for the greatest summer ever!

Year 5 and Year 6 loved a visit from Thomas Johannessen's dad, Les, who showed his amazing artwork. Members of staff asked to purchase some of his work - amazing!  The children were blown away and loved their session. Delph Side can't wait to get Les back in soon!

Year 5 and Year 6 were treated to a talk with our local PCSOs, who talked about their role in the community and how to join the Police Force. Both classes loved our talk and asked superb questions, yet again. Great work Year 5 and 6.

Year 5 and Year 6 were treated to fantastic tour of West Lancs College, courtesy of Mrs Hughes! We enjoyed a tour of the kitchens, lecture theatre, garages, plumbing and bricklaying workshops - and walked away with a goodie bag each! Lots of us already want to enroll for a college course, but…

Year 5 and Year 6 were amazed when they found an ambulance parked on our playground! We met 3 paramedics, one of whom is Daisy's dad. We learnt CPR, used some life-saving equipment and got to see inside the ambulance - what an experience!

Year Six loved Ewan's mum popping in for a chat about her career as an author, and asked some inspiring and deep questions about her writing process! Mr Morris and Mrs Gwyther immediately purchased copies of 'Ropes' through Amazon!

Year Six were fascinated when they met Neil, a former RAF serviceman, and current aeronautical engineer! Neil showed us some incredible videos of his time in the RAF and how planes refuel mid-flight! Ultra-cool!
