Playing badminton in PE

One of our favourite games in PE is BADMINTON! It keeps us fit and healthy and is great fun to play. The first thing that we learnt was how to hold the racquet correctly so that we can hit the shuttlecock (the floaty ball type thing that we use) properly. The class had races where we balanced a balloon on the racquet and ran to the end of the hall and back again. Then we split into pairs and hit the shuttlecock to each other. We had a competition to see who did the most hits- it was great fun.

G’Day! We loved Australia Day!

On Wednesday 1st July we had another one of our action packed theme days. This time it was Australia Day. We moved around the school to climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge, to search the Great Barrier Reef and to visit some famous Australian beaches. All in one day! The weather was scorching hot too. Have a look at what we did!

Our class trip to The Deep

Last Friday we visited The Deep in Hull. We saw lots of exciting sea creatures and learned about coral reefs in Australia which links with our topic in school. We had an awesome day exploring the exhibits and looking at the tanks of fish. Look at our photos of the day.

Viking longship burning!

This morning we experienced the sending of a dead Viking to Valhalla and we burnt a Viking longship. Mr Barton built the Viking longship with the help of Year 3 and 4 children. We held a Viking funeral for a famous Viking warrior and we watched as the ship was set alight. Mr Barton set up a whole procession behind him and the boat. It was a fantastic experience.

Chocolate Day in Hawk Owls

We have learned all about Chocolate in our Topic work. At the end of last term we had a special Chocolate Day where we shared our knowledge about the history of chocolate and information texts that we had written in English lessons. We also performed an assembly about Fair Trade and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Do you like our work?

Melting Chocolate Science!

Today in Science we melted milk chocolate in sandwich bags inside a bowl of warm water. We then put the bags inside a fridge, on a radiator, outside in the yard and on a shelf inside the classroom. We timed how long it took for each bag of chocolate to become hard again. We made it a fair test by having the same amount of chocolate, the same size sandwich bags and placing the bags in their positions at the same time.
