This morning we have enjoyed the opportunity to get out in the sunshine and explore the new play equipment at the park. It was very exciting to get the chance to go on the amazing new play area before it is officially opened to the public tomorrow. We also loved searching for the rocks that the year 2 children decorated and hide in the park for us to find. It is definitely worth a visit this weekend!
Y6 have taken part in a range of experiments linked to sound. We studied how we hear sound and what causes sound as part of our science week investigation. Well done Y6 it looks like you had a lot of fun! #OgdenTrust
As part of science week we have been investigating sound. Today we have taken part in an investigation creating our own guitar to investigate the different pitch we can make using different sized rubber bands #ScienceWeek #OgdenTrust
Dear parents and carers,
We would like to invite you to see our amazing product from our Spring term expedition: ‘Fight for your rights: How can one moment influence our future?’
Y5/6 will be holding a drop-in coffee afternoon in the hall on Monday 24th March, from 2 -3 pm to view their final product and share their work from this expedition. When arriving, please go straight to the hall entering school via Ashtree Close and your child will be collected from their classroom to join you.
Please click here to complete the google form to share whether you will be attending.
The children have worked very hard on drafting and redrafting their artwork which will be showcased in an A5 wire-bound notebook; more information regarding the cost and how to purchase one will follow shortly.
As always, thanks for your continued support, The Year 5 and Year 6 Staff Team
In the KS2 SATs, children are tested on spelling rules from Year 3, Year 4, Year 5 and Year 6. On the attachment below, you will find an outline of each of the spelling rules, as well as words that meet the criteria of the rule. Over the next few weeks, it would be helpful for your child if they could discuss different spelling patterns at home and practice some of the words that may potentially be in the SATs test.
If you have any questions please ask a member of the Year 6 Staff Team. Thank you
Keep a look out on the blog this week for what we will be getting up to in our science weeks. We are planning to inspire the children with scientific experiments and visitors with scientific professions! We are very excited to see what the children know already and what they learn!

Next week’s spelling focus is words ending in -cious and – tious. Look at the website to help you with the spelling rule and watch the video below.
