Year 5/6 have had an incredibly busy Spring term!

In our Geography units since January, the children have learnt all about mountains. This has involved locating mountains on maps, understanding the features of mountains and how they are formed, they also completed an in depth study of Mount Everest. The children's learning then focused on Barcelona. Through this unit, they have learnt about where Barcelona is located, the physical and human of Barcelona and drawn comparisons to London which they studied in Year 3&4. To help their Geography learning come to life, the children have recently visited  Everdon Outdoor Learning Centre. Through the day, the children developed their compass skills and showed excellent teamwork when competing in orienteering activities. 

During our World Book Day activities,  some children decided to recreate characters out of plasticine. I think you will agree - they are fantastic! Other children decided to show their creative side by making a character into a puppet. I was very impressed with their sewing skills 🙂

An excellent start to the first half term for Griffin Class, with many exciting lessons and opportunities already taking place.

This half term in Science, the children were learning about Electricity. They learnt how to draw electrical circuits using the correct scientific symbols and they had the chance to build these circuits. They also created their own investigations around voltage, buzzers and motors.  

To aid the children’s understanding of World Religions, we had the exciting opportunity to attend the Bedford Faith Tour. Throughout the day, the children had the chance to visit three places of worship: a Gurdwara, a Mosque and a Church. They spoke to the Religious Leaders in the places of worship and asked questions to deepen their own understanding. A fantastic opportunity for our own children to develop their spirituality and understand common links between different religions.
