Term 2 has been a great success!
We started the term by continuing to work on our WW2 topic in the run up to Remembrance Day. A huge thank you to Breagh and Tynam who did an amazing job representing our school at the memorial parade and service held at the Golf Course monument.
We then moved on to a science based topic, focusing on energy and sustainability. We linked this to the on-going climate summit ‘COP26’ which was on-going in Glasgow at the time. We explored a range of different ways we use energy on a daily basis and debated the benefits and risks of renewable energy vs fossil fuels.
Our numeracy focus this term was fractions, decimals and percentages. We linked a lot of this work to real life situations and looked at shop sales, deals and VAT. We have built our numeracy skills to allow us to solve lots of real life problems!
In term 2 we have been working towards leadership awards in PE with our active schools coach – Emma Parker. We developed our own games and worked on our coaching skills to deliver the activities to our peers. We will eventually be delivering these as clubs to the younger pupils in the school.
We had lots of fun completing lots of Christmassy activities including problem solving, STEM challenges and art work.
