What a busy and exciting couple of weeks it has been in Year 5! A highlight was our trip to Holy Trinity Church in Richmond, where the children took part in an enriching Easter Experience. It was a thought-provoking session. The children were completely absorbed by the performance of the Easter story and asked some fantastic questions in the forum afterwards.

Back in the classroom, we’ve continued bringing Shakespeare to life in DT, crafting our Macbeth puppets. From fearsome witches to a rather regal-looking King Duncan, the creativity on display has been outstanding. We’ve wrapped up our units of work on shape in maths and global trade in geography, whilst in computing, we've pushed on with our work on databases, where we've been developing our computational thinking by using logical operators to help us answer questions based on the information held in records. 

Well done to all the children for participating in the Great Sheen Mount Bounce. There might be some sore legs after some very energetic bouncing! We look forward to the final event of the term on Friday, the unmissable Talent Show. Well done to all the children who participated in the Year 5 auditions. It was a pleasure to see the whole of the year group actively supporting and encouraging each other.
