Year 5 have spent a lot of time this week reflecting on their happy time on the Isle of Wight – what a great trip!  The children are looking forward to sharing their memories with you all next Wednesday during our assembly.  As we come towards the end of the academic year, the children have also been showing how much they have learnt by completing a series of assessments, not always easy when the sun is shining but good practice for the future.  We have also been familiarising ourselves with our new text “The Lost Words” – a book that was written to highlight the danger of losing words from everyday language that describe the natural world.  How can you love and save what you cannot name?  We were all lucky enough to see so much of the natural world last week on the Isle of Wight and it has helped us to appreciate the beauty that can be found all around us.
