Songs, Species and Sports

This week, we have spent some time practising the songs for the Year 6 production – the singing is really coming along.  It was brilliant to see lots of children auditioning for large parts; the teachers had a really tough job allocating the roles.  Children should be learning their lines over the half term break so that rehearsals can start straight away after half term.  

In English, we worked on a discussion text about endangered animals, where we looked at the reasons why an animal has become threatened and then considered some of the measures which are being taken to by organisations around the world to prevent extinction.

We finished our art project – Activism in Art – with some interesting results.  We are hoping to display some of the work next term.

Sports Day rounded off the term nicely and it was great to see everyone taking part and having a go – the new format garnered some excellent results.  Congratulations to all the teams that took part and  the weather played ball too!

That just remains for us to say, have a lovely half term break.
