Today we all went down to assembly with Mrs Harper.  Sandra presented all the 1st, 2nd and 3rd winners with their stickers and some boys and girls got a special effort sticker for showing perseverance during races.

Well done everyone! Wear those stickers with pride.

The boys and girls absolutely loved our visit from Stephanie from Time Steps.  The session was very interactive and engaging.  She even wanted to trade one of our year 5 girls for a calf! Tempting, but I declined the offer 😅

We would highly recommend Time Steps and will definitely be using them for future topics.  It really brought our current topic to life for the boys and girls. 

The pictures provide a glimpse of just how much fun we had - so many giggles too!

Last week we finished off our length topic by finding the area and perimeter of some delicious, well know biscuits.  The children all worked so well with their study buddies during this activity.   Might have something to do with being allowed to eat the biscuits at the end 🤣

We have been learning about measurement in Y5/6.  Yesterday we worked with our study buddies to test if a persons height is 3 times the distance around their head.  This was not the case for our class.

Today we went outside and measured the distance of our jumps.  Apparently how far you can jump depends on your height.  A lot of us recorded our jump to be the exact same length as our height!

Some of us almost jumped 2 metres!

Even though the weather wasn’t ‘playing ball’, we were! 🤣

We had so much fun this afternoon playing different games and learning cricket techniques.  Thank you Brian!
