Have a look at some of the things we have been doing in our lessons this term...

In our DT lessons this half term, we have been applying our knowledge from our Science lessons on electricity to design and make steady hand games. We enjoyed playing them after we had made them!

           

 

As part of our learning in our Science topic on the human circulatory system, Year 6 took part in an exciting VR workshop - allowing us to explore the system in a way we cannot through our normal Science lessons.

          

Year 6 had lots of fun on our residential visit to PGL Newby Wiske! We got to take part in lots of exciting activities, including rock climbing, abseiling, a zip line, archery and fencing. Here are some photos of us on the trip!

            

We had fun visiting Sandal Library over the last few weeks! We spent the afternoon doing arts and crafts, exploring the books on offer and choosing books to bring back to school with us! 

       

In Geography, we have been learning about different biomes. We created lap books to present information about the rainforest biomes. Here is some of our work:

         

Below are some photos from our trip to Eden Camp where we consolidated our learning from our History topic on World War II. We had a fantastic time!
