Recently our lesson was art and we had to copy Martin Evans drawings in to our art books.  It was fun. There are loads of artists in year five and six! Martin Evans is a fantastic artist. In 1969 he was awarded a PhD from university college and sir Martin has published more than 120 scientific papers. Martin Evans is brilliant. After that we had to use oil pastels to colour our Martin Evans drawings! We all had fun in class!

Today  we had a special visitor who came in. The special visitor was a first aid person and he came to do a workshop with us. It was fun and he is doing it with all the juniors. We had a certificate each too. Everyone enjoyed the workshop with the first aid person called Del!

On Wednesday we were making  pulleys and it was lots of fun. Everyone enjoyed making pulleys and they all worked!

Our topic is Rollercoaster and our class are planning to go to Oakwood park in the Spring term. We are just waiting for the man to reply.

Next week on Monday there is a man from Oakwood  coming in to tell us some information about the park and we will be asking him some questions. We have written the questions in our books. We have been working with our friends to think of questions.

We are all excited!

Friday 8th March

Today, it is world book day. The whole school is dressed up and everyone looks fantastic.  We had to bring our favourite book in. I brought my secret unicorn. So you had a choice of wearing your costume or pj’s. Also everyone in the school is doing activities. Also some of Mrs Jones’ children came up to tell us their stories what they made, they were amazing. We all loved their stories! 

Last Friday 15th of February year 5/6 went to a church to experience a mock baptism and they met reverend Jane for a special day. This day was special because we had an mock baptism. The baby was called le bron Stevens. Reverend Jane had some special water called holy water and reverend Jane poured it on the baby’s head. Then she used healing oil on the baby Le Bron .

Year 5/6 have had an amazing day and everyone had some cake to take home. We all had an after party and everyone enjoyed the cakes, food and drinks!

Thank you to Reverend Jane.

Today, the whole school is going to a building site across the road. We are all going as groups at different times and we had a builder come in to talk about safety e.g. the road and types of vehicles in an assembly. Everyone is excited to go to the building site, we all can’t wait to go!

On Friday 11 January there is a robot man coming in to speak to us and we are all waiting patiently. However there has been a delay and he needs to go back to Swansea to get a board because the robot is too heavy and big to get up the junior steps. Year 5 and year 6  are so excited to see how big the robot is and to learn some facts about robots and how they were built!

In class this term we have been learning about technology and we have been watching  clips  about robots. We have created a robot dance. Also we have been making robot masks in class and they all look really fantastic. Some of us used pens and some people used paint. I think that the paint looked more realistic than the pens.
