On Friday 7^th July, Year 5 pupils walked to Bablake to take part in three transition activities across the morning: D and T, Science and Maths.  We took either some cookies or a made money box in D and T.  In the Maths lesson, we had to solve a range of mathematical reasoning tasks before we could get the next one – we scored points to win the challenge.  In Science, we dissected a flower and observed each male of female part through a microscope.  Thank you to the staff at Bablake for organising the activities. 

This week, we were really lucky to have Coundon secondary pupils delivering Spanish and French workshops to all of our Year 5 pupils.  We learnt some vocabulary, translated sentences and completed activities about each language.  This was also a great opportunity for our pupils to shine with their Spanish reading and translating – showcasing their own learning.  Mrs Riley is exploring future links with other schools as part of her role as the lead for Modern Foreign Languages with feeder schools.   Thank you to the pupils and teachers at Coundon Secondary School for the Spanish and French Workshops.
