Year 5 and 6

Autumn Term 2024 - Year 5/6 - Muddy Puddle Day

Still image for this video
The theme this morning was autumnal leaves. We collected leaves, went on a scavenger hunt, studied the structure of leaves and recreated these in black and white and finally used chalk pastels to create our own leaf collage. After break we enjoyed some outdoor and adventurous activity, working in teams at various tasks.

After lunch we completed an 'Escaped the changing room challenge' linked with Children in Need where we had to solve clues to find a digital code to unlock the door. It was quite a challenge!
We also completed a Blitz matching activity where we had to match clues to pictures from the Blitz. It was a fun filled day.
Here pictures of some of the activities.

As part of their World War II topic Year 5/6 had a brilliant day at Eden Camp near Pickering. This video shows group G enjoying themselves (and learning).

Years 5 and 6 enjoyed a visit from the West Yorkshire Fire Service on Friday 18th October. They shared with us how to stay safe during Bonfire night festivities. Everyone was very sensible and took all the firemen's advice on board.
