Today in PE we had multiple stations to practise for our upcoming sports day, in hope that some of Crew Mcloughlin will be coming home with a medal🥇 Everyone participated, gave their all and showed great sportsmanship, what more could I ask for? 🤩
Today has been a great day for UKS2 as we had the opportunity to explore the Thackray Museum. It was very interesting exploring life for people from 1840 and how that has changed in the present day. Some great discussions especially around how in 50 years time there will be children visiting the museum, who will learn about the covid pandemic.
As we walked round, we had a range of questions to answer in our pairs for each of the different medicine rooms that we entered. We had lots of reading to do in order to really understand how medicine has dramatically changed over the years. This meant our Work Hard and Get Smart HOWLS had to be secure so that we could be successful in our comprehension work!
As part of our expedition, ‘How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ Y5 and Y6 visited the museum to learn about the history of medicine from the 1800’s to the modern day.

I have just finished counting sponsorship form money, thank you to the 13 sponsor forms we have had handed in. We are very close to our target, however we now need the last push to reach it! Any amount you can sponsor would be greatly appreciated and please drop off in the office.
Last sponsorship forms will be accepted on Friday morning, ready for the event on Monday afternoon next week.
Thank you!
Today in Crew Welburn, we have been exploring place value to 100. We have looked at representing numbers to 100 using base ten, and partitioning numbers using our arrow cards to create addition facts! We are getting really confident now and can’t wait to apply our learning to our fluency and problem solving tasks!
What a fantastic (and tiring) day we have had at Bridlington. Firstly, we visited the interesting John Bull Confectioners sweet factory. We saw how hard sweets are made and even had the chance to create our own rock. This took a lot of perseverance and effort to be able to role and mould the rock. Throughout the tour, we were lucky enough to eat a variety of sweets, chocolate and biscuits made within the factory. We even wanted to eat our rock that we had made.
After lunch, we then went to the beach. We loved our time playing with our friends on the glorious sand, under the beautiful sun. Although it was windy, it did not stop us having fun. After burning off a load of energy, we were treated to a delicious ice lolly, which helped us cool down. We would not have been able to have this, had we not raised an amazing amount of money from our cake sale a couple of months ago.
Check out the video below of our day in Brid!
Today we continued our work on our DT case study. We thought about the different food groups and how each food group helps and supports our bodies. We thought about what makes a balanced diet, varied diet and unbalanced diet. We worked in mini crews to complete a quiz then thought about different menus and which food groups were in each. We then thought about if each menu was balanced or unbalanced. Finally, we ordered each menu from the most healthy to the least healthy giving reasons for our views. Some great discussions going on in MI today. Lots of great work linking to our work hard howl especially around active participation. We also helped each other to be successful by working collaboratively which linked nicely to our get smart. Keep it up MI!
Just a reminder that sponsor form money is due in tomorrow (Tuesday 27th June), however if forgotten we can collect it up until Thursday 29th June, so it gives enough time to be counted and organised.
Please leave it at the office or send it in with your child.
Thank you

Throughout case study 2 science we have been given time to reflect and answer our guiding question ’How can a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ Through answering this we used our writing skills and wrote a science report. Check out all of Crew Mc’s beautiful work below… we even gave critique focusing on our beautiful presentation and gave out prizes for the top 3 designs. We just need to respond to writing feedback and work with our peers to revise our writing to ensure Y6 quality.
