Reading To Year 2 World Book Day Tradition

On World Book day KS2 get the chance to read with KS1 and EFYS. As always this was a pleasure to see as the children in Year 2 were so enthusiastic about reading and Year 6 asked some brilliant questions to further their understanding. 

World Book Day Workshop

This was one of the most enjoyable and exciting workshops Year 6 have had the chance to participate in. They had four different challenges to complete. The first was to create a rectangle using different shapes, then they had to create towers which were seven stories high after that, they had to memorise 25 different items. Then, they had to transport 10 golf balls down tubes with holes in it. Finally, they finished with a game of the floor is lava which was the most challenging task yet. This workshop taught Year 6 the valuable skills of teamwork, communication and patience. 

Father Tony talking about the Sacraments of Healing

Fr Tony came to talk to Year 6 about the Sacrament of Healing the Sick. It was superb as he demonstrated the steps which are carried out during the Sacrament. All children listened well and were able to write in detail about the Sacrament after he left. Well done Year 6. 

Roots To Food is one of the best workshops the children participate in each year. All of Year 6 remembered the skills they had learnt previously. They were able to work as a team to create chicken teriyaki - it was absolutely delicious! Well done Year 6! 

Our topic this half term in Science is Our Bodies we will be learning how our body functions and what we can do to keep ourselves extra fit and healthy. We made this model of he heart to show how the blood pumps around the body. Year 6 worked as a team to make sure the model was air tight so that the blood was able to travel from one bottle to another.

Evolution and Inheritance

This half term our Science topic is Evolution and Inheritance. Some of the children went around the playground and hide moths of different size and colour. The rest of the class then had to see which were the easiest to find. The children worked fantastically as a team using their excellent communication skills. Well done Year 6!
