Archery was a delicate mix of control and power. We had excellent listening skills during the most dangerous activity of the week. Well done Desert group!

Giant Swing to start our afternoon. We used strength and cooperation to hoist the people swinging and varying amounts of bravery to start the plummet!

The Piranha Pool was a really exciting escape room. We had 40 minutes to solve the puzzles and escape before the piranhas were released!

We’re up and ‘running’ with our first activity – the crate challenge. With ropes and bodies dangling everywhere our team with the best teamwork and balance made a tower 9 crates high.
5B enjoying World Book Day
We dipped into over 50 books from the school library and the children recommended their favourites for us to keep in class for a few weeks. They chose a huge range from science, poetry, picture books, history, geography and chapter books.
Year 5 trip to Manchester Museum
We had a fabulous day at Manchester Museum making links with rainforests, Ancient Egypt, animal classification and fossils. Everything was totally engrossing and we recommend a visit – it’s free!
