Year 5/6 – Community Meeting!
On Monday, we had our first Community Crew Meeting since Christmas, it was lovely to see everyone together again and celebrate the great start to our learning in Spring term!
A huge shout out to everyone who received HOWL point certificates and especially our Crew Champions! An added shout out to Miss Barnett’s Crew for their impressive Howl point total!! I wonder if anyone will top it next week?!
Year 6 – Get ready for Year 7 maths
This morning Year 6 had a teacher from Trinity come and lead a maths session on simple algebra. It was fantastic to hear what a great impression the children made on their potential secondary school maths teacher; they demonstrated a hard-working attitude and a high level of respect. Well done everyone!
Year 6 Harry Potter Studios Visit
Last week we had the most amazing day at Harry Potter Studios – exploring the set, seeing original props and costumes from the films and participating in interactive experiences. Check out the many photos taken on the day using the link to the folder – can you spot yourself on a broomstick playing quidditch?

Year 6 Harry Potter Watercolours
This morning in Year 6 we have explored using different watercolour techniques to create effects. After exploring and having a practice, we went on to create the night sky behind a Hogwarts silhouette. We are yet to complete them; I can’t wait to see the final pieces later this week.
Our amazing year 5 and 6 art gallery
Last night we held a wonderful art gallery to celebrate our expeditionary learning. The children’s artwork looked amazing displayed in frames they had made and decorated themselves. It was fantastic to see so many members of our families join us in the hall last night to share in the children’s learning journey. There were many proud faces – both children and adult – along with lots of words of praise for the children’s achievements. Thank you for the donations made; we will be giving this to the World Wildlife Fund to support endangered animals.
Check out the link to see photos from the night.
Crew 5/6 Community Crew Champions ✨
Wow! What an absolutely beautiful Community Crew Meeting this morning in Crew 5/6! It was wonderful to hear of all the amazing learning everyone has been doing and how our award winners have demonstrated our Character Traits this week!
We had some extra special shout outs and mentions for our Crew Champion winners! What a lovely start to our Thursday Morning!
Harry Potter Day – Year 5 and 6
On Monday 11th December Year 5 and Year 6 are having a Harry Potter day, where they will take part in a variety of themed activities linked to the film/book series. The children are invited to come dressed up in clothes linked to Harry Potter if they choose; please note there is no expectation for you to purchase a costume for this themed day.
When we visit Harry Potter Studios, it will be the ‘Hogwarts in the snow’ experience. As part of our themed day, we would like to watch the film ‘Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire’ as it has a number of winter snow scenes. The film rating is 12A – if you would NOT consent to your child watching this film, please let your child’s crew leader know as soon as possible so alternative plans can be made.
Thank you
The Year 5 and Year 6 Staff Team
Year 6 – Final touchdown writing
This morning we began to write our final speeches about saving endangered animals. The children were so focused on producing their best – thinking about presentation and all the edits and improvements they had already made in green pen. Well done – I can’t wait to read the final versions.
