A visit from a veterinary nurse
Date: 8th Mar 2022 @ 4:56pm
We really enjoyed our visit this afternoon from Christine who talked to us about what animals need to stay healthy.
Christine gave our guinea pigs a health check and told us that they are both in good health!
I hope the children enjoy reading their leaflets that Christine brought along.

This afternoon we were learning about air resistance and how important it is to parachutes. Our task was to design and make a parachute that would safely bring a raw egg down to land without breaking it! Unfortunately, Mrs. Mather did not end up with enough eggs left for her tea!

World Book Day 2022 gave Year 5 a chance to focus on a book from another country. We are reading The Fastest Boy in the World by Elizabeth Laird. It is set in Ethiopia and is enabling us to find out about life in another country and compare it with our own. We can't believe what the main character has just found out about his Grandad!
Here we are dressed in the colours of the Ethiopian flag or as our favourite book characters.

Our Big Question Launch morning
Date: 22nd Feb 2022 @ 8:58pm
We have had a fabulous morning launching our new BIG QUESTION: 'To Invent Or Not To Invent - That Is The Question.' We played the first known organised ball game invented by the Mayans, which was unbelievably tricky, and debated inventions that have had positive and negative outcomes. Our morning was rounded up by us becoming inventors and trying to solve a real-world problem for the farmers of Nepal called The Squashed Tomato Challenge.

Here are some photos of our amazing bags.
We have been studying Motif printing.
After studying and sketching fossils, we were able to design our own printing design. This was then etched onto a special foam tile and we used fabric paint to print our designs.

The children have done an amazing job completing their vehicles!
They used new skills and a lot of perseverence and problem solving in order to complete them, following their designs and plan carefully!
Well done everyone!
