Year 6 are enjoying their basketbal sessions with Mr Williams. We have learned about the rules of travelling and a double dribble. We have practised different passes and cuts to confuse attackers during matches.
Our Sport's Award went to Amelia this week- well done!
Some of our Year 5 and 6 pupils braved the cold and rain tonight to take part in a hockey competition. Our development team learnt lots of new skills and played a game against another school. Our competitive team came 3rd in their group winning 2-1 against Milton St John's, drawing 0-0 with Pinfold and losing 3-1 to Micklehurst. Well done to everyone that took part!

Year 6 have discussed the difference between banter and bullying. We explored when banter can change into bullying. To get the message of the 'make a noise about bullying' campaign across this year we created some images of key messages using props and people. Our key words include: help, be unique, make noise, tell, and be friends. We also created a word cloud of what we believe bullying is.

Based on the work of Charles Darwin, year 6 planned a fair and comparative test on which beaks would be the most effective at scooping up foods. We had a lot of fun this week carrying out the investigation to see which birds are suitable to collect food and thrive and which would unfortunately eventually die off! I'm sure nobody tried to cheat their way into survival!!
Have a look at our photographs.
