As part of our new English topic on recipes Hedgehog class made some slime this morning. They had to carefully follow the instructions to successfully creat their slime. They worked in pairs brilliantly and we all had a great time!

Young Voices 2020
Young Voices 2020
A group of children in Y5 and Y6 have been going to a club called Young Voices, where you sing and practice songs for an arena concert. On the 21st of January, they set off with their t-shirts and lights bought by parents to the Genting Arena in Birmingham. With 6,349 children singing they were able to spread a smile on anyone’s faces.
Colourful lights spread across the room making our t-shirts change colour, parents took out their phone lights making the room glow. The concert finished at 9:30 and we were all exhausted but very happy. Half of us were asleep! After an hour and a half we were home, tired from the great day we had had.

Science
We spent some time exploring magnets and magnetic objects. Then we talked about what we already know about magnets. The children collectively agreed that only things that are made from metal are magnetic. One of us thought that only specific types of metal were magnetic. Here are some pictures of us exploring the magnets…
Then we were challenged to get the paper clip out of the container without getting our hands wet. Some of us were getting frustrated because we thought that it was impossible!
But then Mrs Farmer said that we didn’t have to use the magnet only… One of us decided it might be a good idea to use some string tied to the magnet as well. We all tried it and it worked!

Hedgehogs Spring 2020 Overview of activities
Forest school will continue to be on Wednesday mornings. Any volunteers to come with us would be greatly appreciated! Please ensure that your child is dressed in appropriate clothing. Waterproofs, wellies and coats are a must. Please also try to make sure that your child has hats and gloves when the weather is colder.
PE will continue on Wednesday afternoons. Please ensure that your child has named PE kits that will be kept in school throughout the term. It is a good idea to include joggers and jumpers during the colder months.
We are looking forward to an exciting term ahead!
