Junior 6
This week Junior 6 have enjoyed a week of enrichment activities to mark the end of the examination period. We began the week with some bread making and the children kneaded, pushed and pulled their dough to create bread rolls and even hedgehog rolls. There were many comments from hungry staff about the wonderful smell wafting through the hall! The heart and eyeball dissection had the children fascinated as they were able to handle a sheep’s heart and watch Mrs Vaughan cut into an eyeball to see the different parts that make up the eye and its different sections. The STEM challenge enabled pupils to pit their creative and engineering skills against each other as they were tasked with making the tallest tower possible out of 40 pieces of cards without using any adhesive. There were some superb results. We have also made Christmas decorations, completed mindfulness activities, watched a movie and had treats and snacks and are looking forward to the annual ‘cake off’. Wow! What a week!
