Ancient Greece Museum Day

To finish our work on the Ancient Greeks, the children in the Otters and Owls had to research, create and design a museum exhibition, with artefacts to show to the school. Each class in the school came to visit, and the children explained their exhibition and showed off their creative skills. The afternoon culminated with a Greek tasting session.

Rounders match - children v adults

A very competitive rounders match took place after school between parents, staff and children.  Year 6 were full of confidence following their success at the cluster tournament.  A torrential down pour of rain stopped play after only 25 minutes, it ceased sufficiently to commence play but by the end there were a lot of bedraggled looking players! The game was closely fought but ended up with a win for the adults. 

                               Final result: Year 6 11 rounders, Adults 13 rounders.

                                            .   Well done everyone!

Adults waiting to bat...





Mr Santy whacks the ball...


...but is caught out by superb Year 6 fielding!





The game was good fun, despite the weather.


Water Fight

The end of year water fight for year 5 and 6 was great fun. Everyone was well and truly soaked!









Design Technology

In Design Technology we have designed and constructed a toy with a cam mechanism.

First we had to make a jinx frame.  This required accurate measuring, sawing and gluing to make a cuboid shaped frame made of wood.






















When the frame was made we had to insert the cams and make sure they moved the animals that we had drawn.
The results were fantastic!
