Year 6 Get Crafty for the World Cup!



 

🏆 World Cup Fever Hits the Classrooms!

The corridors have come alive this week as our pupils kicked off their World Cup celebrations with a fantastic door-decorating competition. The creativity on display has been absolutely brilliant, with each class bringing a different corner of the globe to life right here at school.

Here is who is representing who:

  • Almond Class have brought the vibrant spirit of Ghana to their doorway.

  • Oak Class are channeling the fierce determination of Uruguay.

  • Lime Class have turned their entrance into a celebration of Japan.

👕 Crafty Creations

It wasn't just the doors getting a makeover! Showcasing some incredible fine motor skills and patience, the children also tried their hand at the traditional Japanese art of origami to create their own football shirts.

Year 6 Warm Up Their Leaving Assembly Voices!



The Year 6 children have begun preparing for their Leavers' Assembly, and excitement is already building!

This week, we introduced the assembly and shared some of the songs that the children will be performing. It was wonderful to see their enthusiasm as they listened to the music and started to think about what the final performance will look like.

We have also begun discussing the different roles within the assembly, including speaking parts. The children have been considering how they can contribute and have shown great maturity and confidence when talking about performing in front of an audience.

Over the coming weeks, we will continue to practise the songs, develop the script, and rehearse the various roles. The Leavers' Assembly is always a special opportunity for the children to reflect on their time at primary school, celebrate their achievements, and create lasting memories before they move on to the next stage of their education.

We are looking forward to sharing more updates as preparations continue!

Year 5 Scientists : Filtration Edition



Our Year 5 Scientists have really enjoyed getting hands on in this term's unit: Reversible and Irreversible Changes.

They discussed and tested insoluble solids  using filter paper, water and a range of kitchen based solids.

'Ground pepper is an insoluble solid because it does not dissolve in water.' - Nashwan, Larch

We also explored the journey of filtration when used to produce clean water. 

The children learned that 80% of the world's population have access to clean water which means that the 20% that do not are exposed to harmful unsafe water that can result in diseases and loss of life. 

We looked at how scientists gleaned from nature and noticed that some elements in nature such as sand, gravel, moss and even crushed charcoal can act as a purifier as it prevents larger particles from passing through. 

Our year 5's tested this further by making their own filter using a plastic bottle (safely wrapped in masking tape), cotton wool, sand and gravel. 



'The water was not as dirty as I thought it would be after going through the gravel and sand. It has a yellowish colour to it though.' - Sultan, Larch




                              

We concluded that this would be one stage of filtering water but further processing would need to take place to make it drinking water. 

Our scientist had plenty of fun whilst learning which is always a joy to see!
