On Friday, the children in Mr Campbell's class were treated to a workshop from the Waterside Theatre Company. We enjoyed talking and listening to a local author called Robert Campbell and a local illustrator called Zoe.  

The boys and girls had a great day doing several workshops. Check out the Waterside Theatre in on Instagram, to see the cool activities we took part in. We heard about the travels of captain Timmy and we used our drawing skills to make illustrations for different parts of the book.

Check out the pictures to see how much fun we had!!

This term we have been learning about bridges. We have been looking at several local bridges and how they were constructed. Today it was the children’s turn to design and make their own bridge but there was a twist!! They could only use spaghetti and marshmallows to make their own. Construction started well but some children ran into the problem of materials going missing 🤪 (eaten). Everyone worked well within a group and everyone had a great time doing this activity. Have a look at the finished bridges!! 👍

Today our whole school participated in the Santa Daily Mile.  🎅 We all wore a Christmas accessory to school and braved the cold to go outside and walk for 15-20minutes.  🥶 It definitely got us into the festive spirit and we enjoyed the fresh air too!

As an end of term treat, Mr Campbell had brought in some ingredients in. We followed the instructions we had written last week to make chocolate apples. 

They were great fun to make and even more fun to eat. 🎃👻🍎

We had a lovely time today at the Tower Museum where we attended workshops all about WW2. The children were taken on a tour through the Museum and then attended an interactive handling workshop. They even got to sound off a WW2 air raid siren.  Afterwards some children braved going the whole way up to the top of the Tower! A lovely day was had by all.

Every Thursday, year 5s will be taking part in Badminton in Artigarvan Hall.  Last Thursday, George - our instructor - taught us how to hold our rackets properly and taught us how to serve.  We all really enjoyed it and are looking forward to learning more this week!
