Year 5

Collective Worship in year 5 on the Ten Commandments and Noah’s Ark. This was organised in the children’s own time and resources made at home to enhance it. Well done.

Y5 enjoyed taking part in a Pentathalon today. They practised their running, jumping and throwing skills.

Y5 carried out an experiment to see if they could separate a mixture of sand, salt and water. They used filtration and evaporation to see if they could separate the mixture back to its original form. 
 

For Mental Health Awareness Day Y5 learnt all about positive thinking. We made booklets to help us have a positive outlook on situations that arise. 
 

We all ran a mile today as part of a Virtual Cross-Country event. Everyone completed it and the class support was amazing! Well done everyone!

Y5 enjoyed creating a ‘Bedtime environment’ in order to relax and read their books. We all dressed in pyjamas, brought blankets and pillows in, had hot chocolate then snuggled down to enjoy reading. We also enjoyed reading stories to reception.

Wasdale Mountain Rescue team visited our school this morning to tell us all bout how they save people in trouble on mountains. They showed us all the equipment they used and amazed us with their stories of rescue operations. 

Year 5 had a great week learning how to stay safe on the road on their bikes during Bikeability.

As part of our topic on Earth and Space we designed and made our own Moon Buggies! We looked at features on real moon buggies and tried to include them in our own designs. As you can see we made some fantastic vehicles.

Y5’s dance theme this half term is Vikings. This week they thought about how the sea might have moved as the Viking’s were crossing over to England. They brain stormed for words like rolling, swirling etc. then came up with movements to show this. We saw lots of skills they had learnt in…
