Autumn 1
This half term our children have been working really hard on our Maya topic in History. We have looked at how a Mayan society was formed and some of their beliefs and traditions. We designed and made our own Mayan mask - we all had lots of fun!
In Science, we have been looking at the importance of our heart. We understand how the circulatory system works and took part in an investigation to understand how exercise affects our pulse rate. The children were very tired after this investigation!
Forest School
Year 6 have had a great time in Forest School this term. We have learnt how to play new games, worked as part of a team, explored seasonal changes, made up new games, had fires and cooked over them, learnt how to use a ghilli kettle, whittled using a sheath knife and more! We can manage our own risks, stay safe and keep others safe, we are resilient, great problem solvers and caring towards nature.
