Merry Christmas!

Dear Parents,

We hope you all have a wonderful Christmas. There isn’t any homework set but we would like you to do TTRS a couple of times and some reading over the break, please write down what you have read in the white book.

Have a super holiday!

Rocket launch… BLAST OFF!

After a failed attempt on Wednesday, we managed to launch our vinegar & bicarbonate soda rockets today. It was fab to see them shoot off into the sky…

A fab trip to the National Space Centre!

Year 5 have had the best day at the Space Centre! We were lucky enough to drive round a Mars Rover, watch an amazing planetarium show, and even see a real-life rocket (plus much, much more)! It was great for us to see their enthusiasm and engagement, and we’re proud of how well they conducted themselves out of school. We hope they come home telling you all about what they’ve seen, and we really hope they enjoyed themselves. What a great way to round off our fantastic two topics!
