This afternoon, in accordance with our science topic of Animals Including Humans, Year 6 have completed a sheep heart dissection.

We learnt about the four chambers of the heart and how the heart works with the circulatory system to supply oxygenated blood where it is needed in the body.

The children were incredibly curious throughout and demonstrated a good understanding of the process and the structure of the heart.

Well done Year 6!

This afternoon GMFRS came into school to explain the importance of fire safety, particularly around the events of Bonfire Night. They discussed with the children how to stay safe during this season and what dangers they might see.

The children were all fantastic and demonstrated a mature and respectful attitude towards the topic.

Well done Year 6!

This morning, we gathered together as a school to celebrate the feast of Our Lady of the Rosary.

Year 6 spoke about the importance of the Rosary and how we can grow closer to Mary through praying the Rosary. The children also demonstrated how to pray using the Rosary beads, which we all did as a school.

All of the children were reverent and excellent ambassadors for Our Lady.

Well done Year 6!

In our final Literacy Kicks session, Year 5 & 6 explored the true story of the Jamaican bobsleigh team which inspired the famous 1993 film, "Cool Runnings". 

The children wrote about the incredible story and compared the real life version of events compared to the events shown within the film.

The children all demonstrated fantastic journalistic writing skills and shone with their enthusiasm.

Well done everyone!
