Term 1 in 5th Class Green

At the beginning of the school year in Fifth Class Green, we had lots of fun activities to settle into our new class, build on old friendships, and make new friendships. We took part in STEM team-building challenges, like building the tallest Harry Potter-inspired tower, and played a game of passing a ball of wool while sharing compliments. We also enjoyed a book tasting to explore different stories and discover our classmates' favourite reads. September was filled with creativity, teamwork, and laughter as we built a supportive classroom community to start the year.

Spanish & Mighty Oaks 

This term, everyone in 5th Class Green took part in the public speaking programme Mighty Oaks. This programme helped students speak confidently and without fear in front of others—skills that came in handy during their assembly performance and when running for committee elections. The children also participated in Spanish lessons and created group posters to showcase their new language skills and vocabulary.

Maths Week Fun!

​We celebrated Maths Week by exploring exciting and interactive ways to engage with math. We played board games to practice our addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, and even got creative by building 3D shapes using spaghetti and marshmallows! It was a week full of fun, teamwork, and hands-on learning.

Nature Walk 

Students also learnt about the weather, explored its changing impact on a nature walk, and made DIY windmills. We also won the Golden Boot award for Walking on Wednesdays! ​

Baking, Exploring our Senses & Science 

This term, we had lots of fun combining learning with hands-on activities! We baked rice crispy buns while learning about procedural writing and following recipe instructions. During Halloween, we explored our senses to identify different items that represented classic Halloween symbols. For Science Week, we took part in the Skittles Challenge, experimenting and having fun while exploring science concepts.
