We have been comparing numbers this week in maths, looking at which number is the greatest and which is the smallest! #embrace

We've had a great first week so far in year 5! We have been learning all about counties in geography and we have started our new topic in English, Beowulf! #enjoy

Year 5 were fascinated to learn about what it takes to be a nurse and what duties come along with the job!

Year 5 decided to challenge each other to see who could complete the trim trail in the quickest possible time!

The current record now stands at 17 seconds!

We had a great morning listening to two fantastic authors share their stories! I think some year 5 children are torn as to whether they want to be a prison officer or an author... both??

It was a fantastic start to Aspirations Week in Y5! Prison officers brought in sniffer dogs and told us all about what it takes to work in a prison. We interviewed each other in the afternoon to experience what the interview process is like.

Refugee Day!

As part of Refugee Day, we learnt all about what makes a person a refugee and why people try to seek asylum. We also studied the famous artist, Gabi Jimenez, and created art emulating his style.

We celebrated Elmer’s birthday by creating a piece of art in the style of Kandinsky!
