Dear Parents and Carers
Apologies for the late post this week.
Firstly, a message from Mrs Witherall
Year 5 have been very busy this week and have had a great time exploring ‘Famous People’. The children have looked at famous poets, writers, public speakers, and much more. We have used some of their work as inspiration in order to create some of our very own.
The children particularly enjoyed using Sophia Barnacle’s invention of the Helter Skelter to create a marble run that would take 60 seconds to complete. We explored friction, gradient, materials and obstacles in order to change the speeds of the marbles.
Take a look at some of the inventions below!
Platinum Jubilee Celebrations
The children looked wonderful in their red, white and blue. We sang the National Anthem, drew some corgis with ‘Draw with Rob’ and had a fantastic time at lunch on the field with our picnics.
Year 6 Isle of Wight
It was an absolute pleasure to spend last week with the Year 6 children on the Isle of Wight. We are sure that by now you have heard lots of stories of our adventures.
Lots of fun and laughs were had, but most importantly, every single child achieved something amazing! Whether that be trying a new food, climbing just that bit higher than they thought they could or shooting a bow and arrow. Your children were AWESOME!
Their behaviour was impecable too. We had lots of lovely comments from staff at the places we visited as well as members of the public about how polite our children are.

Don't forget! Monday 6th June is an INSET day. We look forward to welcoming the children back into class on Tuesday 7th June.
