On Thursday 26th June, we held a prize giving and leavers' celebration in our school. It was a wonderful morning filled with memories, tears and laughter.  Many thanks to Jonny Hampton for presenting our awards and for speaking to our leavers!  We wish our leavers every blessing in the next step of their education!

This week P5D completed a Science experiment linked to their WAU topic of Farming. They used a toy tractor and let it travel along eight different surfaces. They made sure the experiment was a fair test by only changing the surfaces and keeping everything else the same - height of ramp, tractor, not pushing the tractor, letting the tractor go each time and the area that the experiment was carried out. It was great to make predictions about which surface would cause the tractor to travel the slowest and the fastest.

P5D enjoyed a Food4life cookery demonstration this afternoon. Margaret explained to the class about the farms that supply farm quality assured meat. She showed them how to look for the logo that can be found on meat in local supermarkets. They got to watch Margaret cook a delicious chilli beef pasta, then it was tasting time and they all agreed it was yummy! Hopefully this will inspire them to cook something else from the book they have brought home to their parents.
