What a great week of weather we have had, and it has been lovely to see all the children playing outside happily in the sunshine during playtimes and lunchtimes. Please continue to send in hats/caps for the children to protect themselves in the sun and apply suncream before they come to school on hot days.
Our Year 6 children were lucky to have Julie in from HeadStart to do an afternoon about transition which is fast approaching for our oldest children. There were lots of collaborative activities over the afternoon and we were joined by the Year 6s from Wilton Primary Academy also.
5H have been swimming each afternoon this week and many have been determined to achieve their 25m target.
We’ve got a busy few weeks coming up, so please keep a look out for different events on the diary dates below.
This week, our featured classes are 5H and 5/6M so please enjoy reading what they have been learning about.
Last week year 5 learnt all about pastry and the different types. Following this, we created two types of pastry desserts. A puff pastry donut, which we decorated with chocolate and sprinkles, and a short crust jam tart. Both looked great!
Year 6 children from DPA and WPA attended a Spark Tees Valley World of Work Event at AV Dawson. The children learnt about the companies that are based in the local area and their roles through coding.

The session will also include discussion around how both services open up accessible ways to both receive and offer support to other males who may have been through similar lived experiences.
