Year 5 writers’ day

By admin5th May 2016

Last Friday myself and six year fives, along with some other schools were lucky enough to go to Long Meadow Primary School, where we met a famous author (J.P Taylor).

The children had a great day at getting their creative writing juices flowing and this promoted a positive mindset towards writing. J. P Taylor shared how he plans and gets ideas for his stories. He shared information about his life, we created our own character descriptions and planned a story based on an interesting spooky story we were told.

The children were fully engaged all day and contributed well to the sessions. They came up with creative ideas, wrote them down and shared them. One of our pupils

Overall, the pupils all had great fun and will hopefully take away the excitement and engagement with writing to make some fantastic writing of their own.

Year 5 Earth, Space and Beyond Ignite!

6th January 2016admin

Year 5 yesterday had a great start to the new term and new year by learning all about space. We were lucky enough to experience the space dome where we were taken into a another world to witness earth, stars, planets and different galaxies in a way we had never seen them before. Unfortunately we couldn’t take any pictures inside but I’m sure the children will have lots to say about it!

We also spent time on the iPads and laptops researching different planets in our solar system and the atmospheres that surrounds our Earth to create posters and information to help each other learn more.

I hope everyone enjoyed it and is looking forward to discovering more about this amazing topic!
