We made parachutes then dropped them from a height. We saw how different types of parachutes effected the time it took to land.
Science - Investigating air resistance
Dance Workshop
We had a brilliant time at the dance workshop, throwing some funky moves!
Investigating spinners
On Monday 7th of March, in science, we thought about how to carry out a fair test. We discussed the variables which we needed to keep the same and one we would change. Our investigation was, ‘Does the weight of the spinner effect the time it takes to drop?’ Here we are investigating!
Dydd Gwyl Dewi Sant
On Friday 4th of March we celebrated Saint David’s day as well as our school’s Eisteddfod by making daffodils using a lovely but tricky paper folding technique. The final product was really affective.

All entries need to be in by Tuesday 1st March.
Art from around the world.
We’ve been learning about how to write in other languages and then looked at the artwork from those countries. We used a range of media to create a piece of art which incorporates a word written in the language to match the art style.
Online Safety
We helped an alien to navigate online games safely and happy. We recorded our online safety learning in our books. Many of us have learnt a lot about how to be safe online.
Safer Internet Talk
PC Viv came in to see years 5 and 6 and talk to us about how to be safe online. We found out about how to ensure our information is shared online and PC Viv told us to check our profiles to make sure they are private and not open to public viewing.
Playtime Fun!
Year 5 and 6 children have been very inventive in their games this week in the wooded area on the field and creating obstacle course on the playground. They have also enjoyed some fab football games too.
