Water Safety
This morning, we in Y6 had a visitor who came in to talk to us all about water safety.
We covered lots of different important subjects during the morning:
- water safety (this included how to be safe in and around bodies of water)
- dangers of open water (what dangers may we encounter whilst in or around open water and what we can do to avoid these)
- how to say safe (the water safety code)
- land based rescue
After a short break, our Y6s then learnt all about:
- dealing with emergency (what to do in an emergency, how to help someone, which numbers to call)
- unconsciousness (checking for danger, recovery position including how to get check their breathing and get them into the recovery position)
Well done, Y6!
Design and technology: running and back stitch
Children have been sharpening their sewing skills. They all expertly threaded their needles and remembered the running stitch from year 3/4. They learned how to create a continuous stitch by using the back stitch.
At home: have a go at mending that missing button; sew up that hole in the cushion; or just practise sewing in a straight line.

Fantastic Football!
Well, what a day!
Today it was Boston Spa Football Gala and Mr Catherall and myself took some year 5’s and 6’s to try our luck in the football tournament. We had a boys team and a mixed team. The boys fought hard against some really strong teams and tried their best. The mixed team were on fire today and walked away being gala winners and are now the proud winners of a very big, shiny trophy! They worked amazingly as a team, great communication between all the girls and boys and even though they were exhausted, they tried their best to the bitter end! Lily was an amazing goalkeeper and did some amazing saves! Elisa, Thomas and Jeevan scored the winning goals in the final. Thomas was ‘Man of the Match’ – well done! Thank you to all the parents who supported us today – we couldn’t have done it without you!
I will polish the trophy ready for school on Monday! Well done to all the players today – you made us very proud and represented our school fantastically.
