Year 5,

What a half term! I can’t quite believe we are here already.

This week you have finished our geography topic by producing a non-chronological report in English and then repurposing it in geography as a double page spread (these were beautifully decorated). In maths you have been working on various mental methods for multiplication and division and have applied them in a variety of contexts. We have spent most of our afternoons practising for today’s assembly and I couldn’t be prouder of the way you presented yourselves this morning.

Next week is, of course, half term and so I hope you enjoy some time with friends and family and have a chance to rest and get ready for next half term where we will begin our first history topic (which will also be a part of some of our English) and our next PSHE topic. We will also continue with ‘Who Let the Gods Out’ and find out what happens to Elliott, Virgo and Thanatos! There will be more information on all of our learning to come on the blog entry at the beginning of the next half term.

Have a lovely week,

Miss H Huntley 😊

Lincolnsfields 2024 Day 1

 We have had a fun packed first day here at Lincolnsfields. We arrived in glorious sunshine and it continued throughout the day. We began with a quick talk about the safety requirements and expectations and then went straight into an activity. We were orienteering, using maps to get to know the site. The children solved a range of riddles (they were better at this than some of the adults!)  After this, it was lunchtime. We then headed to the woods where we were taken on a walk through them – including some muddy bits. The children then took part in team building challenges in the woodland. They completed ‘The Floor is Lava’ using boards to cross the lava, and ‘The Wind Game’ where they worked together to reach between 2 trees (some were rather a stretch). The children then played Zombies vs Humans and finally returned to the main buildings where they were told their rooms. They then began making their beds – some more successfully than others.  We had dinner, a quick rest...

Lincolnsfields Day 2

 Today was a very busy day with lots of new experiences! After a fairly decent night's sleep, the children were up and out for breakfast at 9am. This was after playing a few games and enjoying balloons as it was one of the children’s birthdays. After breakfast, they participated in 3 Children at War activities. They visited a wartime house and learnt about the different tools, toys and activities in that period. They went into a wartime ‘Digging for Victory’ garden, where they saw an Anderson Shelter and then had the job of putting out an incendiary device which had fallen onto a roof – this required a lot of hard work with a stirrup pump. They also visited a Blitz experience where they learnt about the Blitz from a gentleman who was a child at the time. They learnt about his first hand experiences before then attending a museum on the time. Not only this but they also got to ride in the back of a wartime military vehicle which was used in Normandy in 1942 but is still in working c...
