Sports Day and Dress to Express
It’s been busy two weeks in P5.16. Last week we had lots of fun and enjoyed a beautiful weather during our Sports Day and today we all came to school wearing Dress to Express outfits.
STEM Fortnight
Over the last two weeks we engaged in variety of STEM activities. The theme of this year’s Stem Fortnight was ‘Innovation for the future’ and our class focus was ‘Vaccinations’. Some of the things we did include: watching a video made by GP showing us the process of Covid-19 vaccination; learning about viruses and vaccinations, making models of Covid virus and origami syringes, participating in virtual meetings with various guests (Paul Tyler telling us about the viruses, vaccines and our immune systems; Rebecca Rawlinson and Laura Leslie talking about their jobs as Structural Engineers). We finished STEM Fortnight with presentations of our own designs of how we could improve the process of immunisation in the future.
