For our year 5 Ancient Greek topic the children, designed and made a clay vase. 

This year the children have been learning to play the trumpet. A few year 5 children had the opportunity to show off all they have learnt at the 'Bold As' concert. They performed two songs in front of an audiance, with other 100 other children and a real live orchestra. 

The children in KS2 took part in Box 2 be Fit. It was great fun and kept everyone very active! 

Term two Science - Forces. 
To kick-start our new Science topic, the children designed and made air resistant costumes. They thought about how to carry out fair test and raced, recording their times and seeing how successful (air resistant) their costumes were. 

Today, in our Science lesson we have been investigating how shadows change throughout the day.

Today, along with Year 3, 4 & 6, we took part in our first alternative Sports Day. We were able to try Fencing, Skateboarding, Laser Tag and Archery. We had amazing fun and some may be wanting a skateboard for Christmas now!

Children have been busy exploring their new topic of electricity. The children were given the task of making a bulb light up. They had to work scientifically to choose the appropriate equipment, work out what variables to change and investigate why some circuits worked and others didn't.

Attached are a couple of photos of children completing a collaboration exercise in pairs. Both children had to have hold of the crayon at all times, but were not allowed to talk to each other. The children then had to draw a picture but neither knew what they were drawing as they couldn't…

During Science, we looked at a range of different instruments to consider: what was the source of the sound, how could we change the pitch and volume, how did our ears process the noise and what would happen if we played it in a different way.

Pictures from our pancake races this term which we did alongside year 5.

These are pictures from our latest PE lesson where children were learning a new dance routine for 'Run Run Rudolph'. They learnt a new routine from scratch and the finished routine included cartwheels and a variety of catwallk poses!
