Wednesday 16th March 2022 - Today in science we carried out a shadow investigation in the car park at the front of school. We set up our experiment and monitored the position of the shadow cast by a rounders post throughout the day. We used the 8 points of the compass to show the shadow direction and the position of the sun. We measured the shadow length in cm. Our findings are in our Science books but we understood that this was proof that the Earth is spinning and this is what causes night and day!

We all remembered how to make sure we followed this year’s theme for anti-bullying week by saying ‘One Kind Word’.

We are working with the MUFC Foundation to raise awareness this week about 'being green!' We collected 10 full bags of rubbish in a little under an hour! We were amazed at how much rubbish is littered around school and will continue to raise awareness to the local community in order to reduce this! Well done everyone for your hard work!
Friday 3rd September 2021 - Year 5 did a welcome activity today. We all told the class a piece of information about ourselves whilst passing around a ball of string. We ended up all connected with a 'spider web'. This showed that we are all individual and unique yet we are all part of the new Year 5 team!
