Physical Computing in Year 5 and 6 Autumn 2024
We have been working hard in Year 5 and 6 developing our knowledge of Crumble Kits. We have designed our own models regarding World War 2, made the models from reclaimed materials, fitted in our physical computing elements (including motors and lights), programmed our microcontrollers and then tested them out!
Please have a look at all the models below showing off our Creativity, one of our key school values!

We love our dormitories, we made our beds all on our own.
Enjoying our lunch before our activities.
This afternoon we tackled the Zip Wire, the Adventure Climb and Archery. The Zip Wire was very high, the Adventure Climb was very wobbly and challenging and the Archery was amazing.
Hot drinks, cake, biscuits and card games.
Tuesday 18th June
Breakfast: lots of lovely food to eat this morning. Then we made our sandwiches ready for lunchtime.
This morning’s activities were King Swing and Crate Stacking.
This afternoon we climbed a 9 meter Quad Pole. We then managed to get 4 people on the top of the pole and hung on to each other. It was very high, wobbly and scary, but we managed it.
We also completed the Night Line activities. We partnered up with a friend and then one of us was blindfolded. We then had to lead our friend around a course. We had to trust our friend to guide us safely round. Afterwards we made our way around a pitch black maze of underground tunnels which was so much fun.

Y5/6 Christmas Fayre
On Tuesday 19th December, our class organised and held a Christmas Fayre to raise money for Acorns Children's Hospice. We are helping our former pupil, Matthew Bladen, raise money for this worthwhile charity.
He is rowing across the Atlantic Ocean during the Christmas period - 3000 miles in 30 days.
We had great fun running the tombola; a raffle; Guess How Many Chocolates in a Jar; Guess the Name of the Teddy; Lucky Dip; Cake Stall; Home-Made Decorations etc.
All the parents and children who came had lots of fun.
We will let you know how much we raised as soon as possible.
Show Off Afternoon
On Friday 15th December 2023, we showed our families the work which we have learned about this half term.
We showed off our English books and all the writing we have completed on Ancient Greek Myths; our history books and art work linked to Ancient Greece; our 2D and 3D Greek pots and scary Medusa Masks.
We loved showing our families all the work which we have done that we are very proud of.
Greek Pots
As part of our history work on Ancient Greek, we have learned about the importance of pots. They had many different uses and they were painted with pictures and images of The Olympic Games; Everyday Lives; Greek Myths and War.
We drew 2D pots and designed and made 3D clay pots, which we then painted.

Beowulf: Performing our Eulogies.
This half term we have been reading an adaptation of the Anglo-Saxon poem, Beowulf. As a result of reading this story, and finding out the sad ending that Beowulf is defeated in battle by the dragon, the children planned, wrote and delivered eulogies in remembrance of one of the great Anglo-Saxon warriors. We hope you enjoy listening to some of our performances.
We will be adding more over the next few days.
