Last week, Class 10 were working hard on part of their final product. Our designs are looking great and we hope that the the local community appreciate them too!

Yesterday was national Writing day. This mean the children had freedom to write about a chosen image and decide what genre to write about. We had some fantasy tales, some newspaper articles and some excellent narratives. The children tried to remember features that we have used this year as well. There were some really lovely and interesting pieces of writing and what was great to see was the fun had by all when writing their pieces of work. It was a relaxed atmosphere and then we loved hearing what others wrote.
Crew Walton have worked so hard today, planning, writing, editing and producing final drafts of their own stories for National Writing Day. Everyone worked so hard, choosing from a range of picture stimuli from which to base their pieces. What a successful day!
The children in Year 5 planned and delivered a debate linked to our book ‘Pig heart boy’. The children worked incredibly hard to prepare structured and well thought out questions and showed respect when providing their responding arguments…a fantastic effort!
Class 10 had the joy of Carolyne from Sugar Rush visiting us and teaching us more amazing facts about the Mayans. We loved it!
We loved even more having the chance to try delicious chocolate treats that were brought in. Thanks for the great afternoon!
What a great day Class 10 had decorating our reading corner and immersing ourselves into the World Book Day spirit. Well done Class 10 for helping make our reading corner look much improved!
Today, Class 10 have made predictions about how friction will affect how vehicles travel. We tested the car on different surfaces and found that, the smoother the surface, the further the car went. However, the rougher or bumpier the surface, the more friction there was and the car would travel less distance.
Well done Class 10 on working so well together! 🙂
What a great lesson from Class 10, today! We experimented with magnets and put on our scientific hats with the hope of finding out what materials were magnetic and which weren’t. We accurately predicted that the items made of metal (paper clips, coins and table legs) would attract the magnet, but items that were not made of metal (rulers, paper and rubbers) would not attract them.
However, some did try to trick me into thinking that plastic was magnetic!
Keep up the great scientific work, Class 10! 🙂
Class 10 have walked for miles and seemed tried after a bus journey, but loved their day at YWP seeing so many incredible animals. We were very excited to get in and start exploring!
We then went to see the lions, but they didn’t like the early start, so off we went to see the polar bears and the warty pigs!
After that, we went to see some of the giant otters, including the baby have their breakfast, the monkeys and then walk with the wallabies!
We then finished off wandering the tigers, the leopard and the giraffes and then finally finished with a workshop on polar bears!
We even cam face to face with a terrifying polar bear!
A huge well done to Class 10 for how they behaved around YWP and a massive thank you for all of our parent volunteers – we really appreciate you coming! 🙂
What a great turn out for National Read Aloud Day. Thank you to everyone who came – the atmosphere was great!
