Trip to Howsham Mill
The class had a fantastic time learning about cogs, gears and pulleys.
Career Week 2025
In Year 5 we are enjoying learning about different careers. We thoroughly enjoyed finding out about the police and the different roles we could be. Here are two of our class members trying out the uniform!
We were very lucky to have Mrs Weir in to talk to us about her job as a chief analytics insight officer. We were all fascinated to find out about her role and the skills involved.
Charcoal.
Look at our fantastic still life drawings! We used charcoal and really tried to avoid smudges. We had to think carefully about where the light was hitting our object and then apply darker and lighter shades.
Year 5 have been very lucky to have a drama physical theatre workshop and here are some photographs of the children in action!
Science Family Learning Session
We have had a fantastic afternoon making parachutes during our family learning session. Here are just some of our examples. We had to think carefully about the material used and also the size of the parachutes. Then we tested them to see if our predictions were correct.
