The highlight this week was watching Alice in Wonderland performed by a theatre company this afternoon! I expect there’ll be many sore throats tomorrow morning! The objective of this week’s PE lesson was to practise receiving the ball from a side-on position: In Art this week, we looked at landscape artist Kittie Jones, and […]
It’s the end of another week, and once again it has been busy busy! We have cracked on with our English, exploring and discussing the theme of refugees, which is central to our novel The Boy at the Back of the Class. Maths has seen a continuation of place value, including ordering and comparing numbers, and […]
It has been an extremely busy first week of Year 5! We began by choosing our first class novel in a World Cup of Books. It was tight competition, but the winning book was Onyeka and the Academy of the Sun, which we have been enjoying reading in the Peace Garden this week. We have also […]
And just like that, Year 5 has come to an end 😔It really has flown by, seeming like only a few months ago that you came into my classroom for your transition day, unsure how to feel about the prospect of being in upper Key Stage 2. You really have been a fantastic class to […]
Our week began with a taster day at Nicholas Breakspear School, which was thoroughly enjoyable! After an assembly with headteacher Mr Linnane in the assembly, we had an RE lesson, in which the teacher was blown away with the class’s knowledge of the Bible. RE followed with Science, with was unanimously the highlight of the […]
The main causes for excitement this week were Sports Day on Wednesday, and Mini Police yesterday. The children showed brilliant sportsmanship in the Sports Day events: they made sure they tried their best, they cheered their housemates on, and above all they had fun. Well done to all of you! Yesterday, we had our third […]
This has been a special week for Year 5, as we had a class pilgrimage to Aylesford Priory on Wednesday. We were given a tour of the beautiful grounds by Father Jed, one of the five Carmelite Friars that live at the Priory, then had Mass, followed by a picnic lunch on the field. We […]
This week was Healthy Eating Week. Over the course of the week, we have tasted different flavoured waters each day: strawberry on Tuesday, lemon on Wednesday, lime on Thursday and mint today. We also learnt about wholegrains, then tasted wholewheat wraps and wholegrain cereal, which both proved extremely popular! Today was extra exciting because we […]
Today, we made the most of the sun by continuing with our mixed media landscape unit. We began by putting down a watercolour wash, then when that was dry, we used fine liners to add detail. Look at some of the fantastic art they produced! Also this afternoon, we began our new Computing unit on […]
Well done on another wonderful half term, Year 5! Yesterday, we honoured Mary by crowning her with flowers in our annual May Procession. This afternoon, we celebrated the Feast of Saint Paul VI with a beautiful Mass followed by an ice lolly in the sun. Happy half term everyone! Miss D 😎
