In their English lessons, the Year 6 children have been writing persuasive speeches to persuade the Headteacher that Saturday school must not go ahead.

Let’s hope our weekends remain untouched!!!

Year 6's Super Writers
As part of a local authority initiative ending on Children in Need day, a group of our Year 6 pupils have worked incredibly hard to produce a wonderful collaborative piece of writing based on a proverb from around the world. The children chose the proverb "A single bracelet does not jingle" and have crafted an excellent written piece around this, which also includes an array of higher-level sentence structures and punctuation. We are extremely proud of the children's efforts.

TechStars Digital Design Competition
Year 6 used TinkerCAD to design a building that would improve the lives of people in their community. They thought about how the building would look, what smart or environmentally friendly features it might have, and how it would be used. We entered our designs in the TechStars Digital Design Competition, where the children were judged on their creativity and their use of digital design tools. Have a look at their designs. Well done to Luca, who won the competition with her P

Maya chocolatl
Maya "chocolatl" refers to the ancient Maya’s spiced, bitter chocolate drink. It was consumed in ceremonies and was considered a sacred gift from the gods, used for energy, and even as currency. Unlike modern hot chocolate, the original beverage was unsweetened and often very spicy. Today, Year 6 tasted some Maya hot chocolatl as they were learning about the history of chocolate. As you can see from the photos, some children enjoyed it, but most did not!
