Year 5 - Summer 2 - Week 3

Date: 18th Jun 2024 @ 10:15am

Another week complete in the Year 5 classroom!

The undoubted highlight of our week had to be our school trip! This time our adventures took us not too far down the road to ‘Go Outside’ in Formby. We had an absolutely brilliant time in a range of survival, adventure and orienteering style activities, with many children commenting how this was their all-time favourite school trip. A particular highlight was the Slip 'N Slide where the change of clothes definitely became a necessity! What a time we had and a really fantastic final Year 5 outdoors adventure.   

In our new unit on 'Loss, Death, and Christian Hope', we have delved into different interpretations of God. The students have been introduced to complex theological language, learning terms such as God being supreme, omniscient, and omni-benevolent. This unit has sparked thoughtful discussions and deepened our understanding of these profound concepts.

This week was also National School Sports Week! To mark this event, our Sports Ambassadors helped to ensure that there was a different sport available for the children to play at breaktime and lunchtime. The sports included dodgeball, tennis, rounders and more. Great fun was had as many children got involved with a different sporting activity during their free time.

The week concluded with an exciting Friday involving the school talent show. We were so proud of all children who auditioned in class, simply for having the courage to stand up and showcase their skills in front of others. We were beaming with pride! Well done also to our winning act who performed beautifully in front of the school on Friday. Great entertainment all round! 

Have a great weekend, everyone!
