Year 5/6
Upper Juniors
Hello, we are the Upper Juniors class. In our class we like to have fun but also work really hard. As the oldest children in school, we like to act as role models for younger children and show responsibility around school.

What we have been up to...
October
October has been jam packed with lots of exciting events. We finished our English topic on 'Rose Blanche' and began work on writing newspapers based on the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. We ended our history topic of World War 2 with a fabulous trip to Eden Camp where the children were brilliant and had a great day. In school we have had other events such as French breakfast, first aid training, cross country, harvest festival, music workshop with Mambo Jambo and we had a workshop that explored the importance of Black History Month.
September
We have had a very busy and exciting start to the school year. We have voted for our house captains and applied for class and school jobs. We also had our play leader training so we can carry out games and activities with younger children each lunchtime. In the classroom, we have been learning all about WW2 in history and have finished reading 'Rose Blanche' in English. We have taken part in whole school events such as fairtrade fortnight. In science, we have learnt the names and positions of the planets and made a scale version model of the solar system outside on the field. We have been enjoying dance and football in PE so far.
