Could you decipher Viking runes like these children?

A very big thank you to Mr Weston and Mr Brown for joining us in R.E. today.  They came to talk to us about how Christians believe that Easter is a celebration of Victory.  They even attempted to create new life.  They were of course unsuccessful but it was a great way to reinforce that only God…

In History, Y5 have now moved on to learn about the Vikings.  Our challenge this week was to work in teams to research one particular aspect of Viking life and then present everything we had learnt to the rest of the class.  Here we are sharing our posters.

Today in Science we looked at the digestive system of a Human. Some of us had lots of fun. Some of us were horrified. Take a look at our faces. 

Mrs Walsh came to judge our bread. She chose 3 winners. 
Chloe made a cat, Danny made a hedgehog and Sophie made a tortoise. 
Well done to our winners. 
 

We used our plans to mix, knead, shape, bake and decorate our own bread. We worked sensibly and safely and our finished products were very impressive.

A very big thank you to Debbie Green for coming in to school this afternoon to help us with our learning about the Bible.  Never before have we ever seen such a large bible!

Today in Year 5 we dissected flowers to find all the main reproductive parts. We knew the names of the parts but bringing the outside in helped us to learn where each part was and its function in pollination and fertilisation. We had remembered a lot from our lessons in Year 3 where Mrs Dowson…

We played a game this afternoon to help us to learn more about the African country, Nigeria.
