Cross Country Success!

Posted on by year5

A massive congratulations to everyone in Year 5 that took part in the Cross Country Competition at Dymchurch Primary School last week. All children had to run a distance of 1600m and showed great determination and perseverance. Unfortunately we just missed out on getting a medal. Well done again, you should all be proud of yourselves 🙂

 

 

 

Thanks for your continued support.

Mathletics is now live!

Posted on by year5

Mathletics should now be up and running again.

Pupil logins have been stuck in your child’s homework diary on the back page.

This is a great resource to support your child at home.

You can access Mathletics on a computer, laptop and a tablet.

Each week we will be adding new tasks and we will be checking to see who our Mathletics champions of Year 5 are!

If you have any issues or questions please speak to your class teacher.

Thanks for your continued support.

World Space Week

Posted on by year5

We celebrated World Space Week in Science this week.

In groups we chose a planet that we wanted to research and created a persuasive argument why our chosen planet should be chosen next for human exploration. We then presented our findings to the class and selected the most persuasive argument as the winner.

Thanks for your continued support.

Harvest Festival

Posted on by year5

 

For the Harvest Festival Service we wrote poems about two fruits of the spirit.

In Willow class we wrote poems about faithfulness and in Maple class we wrote poems about Goodness.

We also thought about what we should be thankful for.

Thank you to everyone that came and celebrated with us today and for all your kind donations.

Year 5 team.

In Art we have been looking at Vincent van Goth. We would like you to research Vincent van Goth and create a fact file. Including information such as: Where was he born? Did he always want to be an artist? What was his most famous piece? How many paintings did he sell when he was alive?
