Week 5
This week Year 6 have had a busy week with 2 mornings out! We enjoyed a morning at the 3 Hills with Safety in Action, as well as a morning at the Battle of Britain Memorial where the children enjoyed a tour around the site as well as a go in the Hurricane plane simulator. The children's behaviour there was exemplary. This week we have also written diary recounts based on WW2 and developed our F.D.P (fraction/ decimal/ percentage) knowledge. In Science we have been investigating shadows and in P.E we have developed hockey skills and created interpretive dances based on WW2 stories. This week Year 6 have also been rehearsing for our Easter Service at the church next week.
