What a busy week had by Year 5!
Did you know that 50 billion burgers are eaten a year in Las Vegas? This fact kicked off year 5’s inspiration to design and make plant-based burgers in our DT learning this half term. This week, the children have taste tested a variety of vegetables to help design their plant-based burgers. Next week, the children are heading over to Oaklands’ catering department to cook their plant-based burgers and buns.
On Tuesday, the children gave it their all for Sports Day. They all participated as champions, individually and as teams. Well done Year 5!
Wednesday, we enjoyed a beautiful day at Chichester Harbour. The children’s day began by looking for sea defences on our walk down to Dell Quay. Next up, we enjoyed a creature hunt along the shoreline where we found many crabs, clams, periwinkles and sea lettuce. After lunch, it was time to step on board the Solar boat on the marina. The children participated in an ‘I’ spy activity by trying to find all of the items on their list. Sadly, no seals were spotted this time! For our final activity of the day, we created a memory card by sticking any memorabilia from the coast onto a card to help us to remember the great time we had on our trip.
The children outshone themselves, demonstrating all of our school values and received very high quality feedback from the teaching team at Chichester Harbour Conservancy. Well done Year 5, this was a very hot day with lots of walking, we are very proud of you!
