Dover Castle
Last week, Year 6 visited Dover Castle as their exit point for The Tudors and the entry point for WW2. We took part in a ‘Secret Codes and Ciphers workshop’ and learnt about Operation Dynamo.
Learning how fossils are formed
We used bread and sweets to learn how fossilisation occurs. The children placed the sweets in between the bread and placed a heavy book on top to show how layers of sedimentary rock and minerals form over time. After a few days, we were able to see how the shape of the sweet was indented on the bread.
Star of the Week
Well done to Daniel and Jasmine who are Elm’s latest ‘Stars of the Week’. Both children are model pupils.
Keep up the good work!
