Exciting Experiments
Today, we investigated reflective materials. We shone torches on different materials and used iPads to measure brightness of the reflected light. We found out that shiny and smooth materials reflect light best.

The Year 6 Sports Ambassadors have started to play games with KS1 at lunch times this week. It has been lovely to watch them supporting the younger children in sport.
We all listened to our visitors from Holy Trinity Church who spoke about special memories of the Queen. The Queen we learnt was a Christian throughout her life and her faith. The Queen led by being a good example to others.
Can we lead others? Can we help others and be kind?
