Thank you Year 5 for a lovely and final class mass. Well done.

Can you recognise the pupil behind the mask?

National Sports Week

Year 5 enjoyed a lovely afternoon at Litherland Sports Park to compete in an athletics competition and did extremely well. 

They did long jump, 600 m run, 60 m sprint and howler throwing.

We played at Goodison Park.  It was really fun and a great experience.  We played against Wirral girls and we won.  The score was 1-0 to Sefton girls.  This is the trophy we won.

Year 5 have carried out investigations to find our what the best conditions are for seeds to germinate.  Here are the results.

Year 5 visited Dominos Pizza and had an amazing time.  They learned about health, hygiene and most importantly, how to make their very own pizza!

Year 5 designed and made wonderful working instruments. 

They had to decide what materials would make the best sound for their instruments.

We all enjoyed our 'Day of Dance'

A big thank you for attending our class mass all about Special People.

Fantastic Footballers Win Again and Again

Today the football teams from year 4 year 5 and 6 went to Maghull High School to compete in the Everton Academy Football Tournament. Well they were fantastic and won their competitions to go to the finals at Finch Farm in March. Watch this space for more details. We need a new shelf for all our trophies and medals. Mr MacAreavy thought he was going to have some time off at half term. Thanks children you are brilliant but please stop winning for a few weeks. Well done to you all and thanks for the great support from mums dads and grandparents.

 

We have been designing and making containers using clay.  They have been designed to contain something that is special to them.

Using our skills of bread making last week, Year 5 made wonderful chocolate twister bread a la Jamie Oliver!

We have been learning how to bake bread and enjoying the end result. 

Watch out Mr Warburton!

We had lots of fun playing the board games that we designed and made during the half term holiday. 

Well done Year 5 for putting in so much effort and creativity.

Year 5 have been learning how to use sketching pencils.  Can you guess who they have been sketching in class?

Year 5 have been learning about the features and importance of instructional texts.  We blindfolded a couple of children who had to be guided around the room by listening to instructions.  The instructions had to be clear and precise to avoid bumping into obstacles.

Well done to Year 5 for delivering a lovely and successful mass.

Sketching

Year 5 have been sketching objects that have meaning to them.  Here are a few photographs showing them sketching their favourite teddy bears.

Year 5 and 6 Football Tournaments Cancelled due to Poor Weather

The year 5 and 6 football tournaments for the boys and girls was unfortunately cancelled today, Friday 2nd October. The organisers phoned school to say that the weather was poor and the decision had been made to play the games on another day. The teams were disappointed but understood the reasons for the decision. I was able to take a few picture of both teams and I'm sure that you will agree that the girls look Absolutely Fabulous in their new kits. I think that even Patsy would like them.

 

Pulses

We have been carrying out an investigation into what effect exercise has on the body.  We did this by taking our pulses whilst sitting down and after exercise.
