Black History Month might be celebrated in October, but for Year 6 we explore many aspects of Black history all year round.

We have, however, been investigating Bessie Coleman - the first Black female pilot, as well as watching Ncuti Gatwa as Dr Who in a rip-roaring adventure as the 15th…

We had a great time on Wednesday, building shelters and lighting fires as part of our work on settlements. It was a very wet day, but we all managed to build a shelter and even managed to get fires to light despite the shocking weather. We worked really well in our teams and laughed a lot!

Year 5 have been learning about land use in the UK and used different thematic maps to investigate how land is used in different areas. Well done, Year 5!

What a busy afternoon! We all put on our wellie boots and we hiked up the hill to Williamson Park. Whilst we were there we were on the look out for signs of autumn. We saw conkers, acorns and lots of leaves falling from the trees! We also found some lovely muddy puddles to jump in! We all had a…

Year 6 took a closer look at the Bible this week, as we tried to find all the scripture that showed us we should look after the planet.

Year 6 were hard at work this week exploring the colourful world of camouflage!

We made predictions about what would happen if we used different sized rocks or dropped them at different heights. We also learnt…

How much is a kilogram? Well in Year 2 this morning we found out. We filled our weighing scales until the dial touched the 1kg marker. Then we had to go and find just one object that would fit on the scale that also had a mass of 1kg. Can you guess what that might have been?

Year 6 had an amazing time today, exploring the fast and furious sport of wheelchairbasket ball!  As you can see from the pictures, the games were really fast but totally physical and full of strategy too!
