Year 6 enjoyed hosting a stall at the Fayre on Friday. They have worked hard to not only create products to sell but also to complete costing activities using Microsoft Excel and formulas to keep track of the finances.
Christmas Fayre
Library visit
Recently Year 6 visited Knighton library. This was facilitated by Larry who is working closely with Mrs Fielding to access a grant to develop our school library. We visited to learn how libraries are run; the roles involved in it, the resources that are available and how it is all organised. Emily organised a selection of fun activities to help us learn about these; everyone had a wonderful time. Diolch.

Challenge Yourself 25
We have been busy celebrating and raising money for Children In Need today. Year 6 started the school by delivering a whole-school assembly about Children In Need. We then spent the afternoon completing challenges…hula hooping, the plank, throwing balls, press-ups…all for 25 seconds with a bit of competition between friends. We also learned the Strictly dance. Everyone was so willing to give it all a go. Da iawn, bawb!
Christmas Fayre preparations
We are beginning work on our products for the Christmas Fayre; we have selected products, materials and worked on the costings using Excel and used formulas. It took a few attempts to get the formulas working but we persevered! Our very lovely Miss Bunn has been helping us. But what are we making…?
Royal Welsh show
We were kindly asked by some former members of staff to create some decorations for the Royal Welsh show, where they are Hostesses in the Sheep Tower. Some of our pupils are keen members of Young Farmers and/or farming enthusiasts so they were very happy to help out.
Digital Cluster Project
Today some of our Year 6 pupils have been busy working with their peers in the cluster. Each school has had a piece of digital equipment to use for the term; the pupils have had to plan and create a task to deliver to their peers from other schools in order to train each other. This time we had the Rugged Robots.
It was fun to use the different pieces of equipment (Sphero, drones, LEGO Spike, Cody Rockies etc) and to work with other pupils. It was especially lovely to see and work with some of our former pupils!
and a big thank you to our parent volunteers for transporting us to the event. Diolch.
PobUrdd
Look what our wonderful bakers managed…! They were judged on decoration, layers and taste! Roedden nhw’n blasus iawn. Da iawn, bawb! Pob lwc to our baker in the next round!
CogUrdd
Some of our Urdd members have been busy making an open sandwich! The judges were very impressed! Da iawn! Good luck to our chef in the next round…pob lwc!
Year 6 transition day
Year 6 pupils from our cluster were invited to a day at the John Beddoes campus. We completed a Breakout activity, whilst being guided around the building by some of our previous pupils, and an art lesson. Every seemed to have a wonderful time and are already looking forward to high school.
