To raise awareness of road safety during Road Safety Week, Year 6 created pie charts depicting the method of transport each pupil uses to get to school. The survey showed that walking was the most popular form of transport, closely followed by car. Pupils also combined their literacy and art skills to create road safety posters to encourage both pedestrians and drivers to take care when using or crossing the road.
In Art/Design technology, Year 6 have created their own looms. This involved accurately cutting and measuring wood to create the frame. They then chose a Falklands landscape to depict, and weaved the it on their looms using wool. This was pain-staking work but their finished designs are simply beautiful!
As part of transition to FICS, we have been excited to take part in 3 science lessons delivered by Mr Ledger, focussing on the heart, lungs and circulatory systems. These lessons have included observing the dissection of a real lung and heart! We are now very excited about moving up to FICS to do more science.
Year 6 Term 3: A & J Cameron Local History Project
The pupils will be undertaking a local history project based on something they find stimulating and important. Pupils are encouraged to research via the library, museum, and our national archives, interview people, and visit relevant primary sources where relevant (such as monuments, settlements, etc.).
This is set as a homework project and supported by the school.
