On Thursday 28th June, year 5 children visited Ingleton Quarries for an outdoor pursuit day. In gloriously bright sunshine, the children enjoyed participating in rock climbing, abseilling and problem solving acitivities. Well done to all the children who participated so enthusiastically.

On Thursday 21st and Friday 22nd June, we visited Manchester for the annual year 5 residential trip, We arrived at the Science Museum and participated in two workshops: Circuit City and Forces and Flight. The children learnt so much about both topics! After, we explored the museum and then got settled into our accommodation at the Youth Hostel. After a wonderful tea, we watched Awful Auntie at the Manchester Opera House. On the second day we went to the Rockover Adventure Centre for an activity day, which included bouldering, abseilling and climbing. A fabulous trip once again!

Year 5 children enjoyed a netball skills coaching session hosted by Kirkbie Kendal School. During the session the children learnt about movement, passing and shooting. They then got to play fun games at the end. Everyone had a great time and learnt lots of new skills. Have a look at the photos to see what we did.

As part of our Living things and their habitats topic, year 5 have been studying the parts of a flower and how this relates to plant reproduction. In a recent Science lesson, we dissected a flower and found the different parts, named them and learnt about their functions. Here's some pictures to illustrate what we did.
