This week, the children honed their gymnastics skills, focusing on practicing their balance while safely using equipment. They confidently used the wall bars, vault, and ropes, showing great care and enthusiasm. In Science, we began our unit on Materials and their Properties, where every student was actively engaged and curious. During our RE lessons, we explored the differences between philosophers and philosophy, sparking thoughtful discussions. We wrapped up the week with a series of teamwork games designed to develop their communication skills. Well done, everyone!

Welcome to Year 5! We hope you all had a wonderful summer and enjoyed the break. This week, the children have settled into their new classes beautifully and immersed themselves in learning about Africa as part of our 'Continents Week'. They showcased their creativity by using sewing and batik techniques to create African flags, learned traditional African dances, crafted tribal necklaces, and honed their computer skills to produce fact files. The children also practiced their geography skills, using atlases to label all the African countries, and painted stunning watercolour sunsets. Well done to all the children for their fantastic efforts!
