In science we invetsigated which materials were soluble and which were insoluble. We mixed each material with water observed what happened. We then grouped the materials depending on their solubility.
Year Five welcomed Katie and Pauline from The Rivers and Canals Trust to take part in a workshop all about rivers and their features. We learnt about the upper course, middle course and lower course of the river. We also identified key featurs of a river such as the source, mouth, menader, oxbow lake, watefall, tributary, floodplain and human features such as bridges, ports and farmland. Our models were brilliant!
The children headed to the polling station this week to vote in the new school council for this year. The candidates were all very strong and it was a difficult decision. Well done to all those who put themselves forward and congratulations to our new Year 5 school councillors.
For our mission display, they children took inspiration from the famous artist Frida Khalo. The children used oil pastels and collage materials to create their own interpretations of her famous self-portraits. They did a fantastic job!
