5/6 S Certificate Celebration
Year 5/6 S have had another great week. They’ve had a busy week designing and creating cereal boxes, using relative clauses in their writing and classifying animals in Science. It’s been another tough decision this week to choose my certificate winners.
This weeks certificate winners are…
For great learning…
Paige- you are joining in so much more in lessons now and putting a lot of effort into all your learning. Well done and keep it up.
For sport and physical activity…
Alfie – you always join in PE with energy and enthusiasm and you always have a smile on your face. Well done!
For living and learning…
Jessica- you contributed so well during the lessons this week. You gave some great examples of which 8Rs you use in your learning.
Well done everyone!
5/6M Celebration
For living and learning skills… Seth, you are a responsible learner. You answer question and listen carefully to others. You take pride in all your work .
For sport and physical activity… Emily, you were a fantastic partner in our tennis game. You were supportive and showed good control with the ball.
For great learning… Michaela, your cereal box design is fantastic. The jungle theme is a great concept. Well done.
Year 5 Reading
The reading Year 5 have been doing this week is linked to our Science learning about materials. We have been looking at a report about how plastic is harming our oceans and other environments. The children were working on their retrieval skills to answer questions. This involves the children skimming and scanning the text to find the answers to questions. They look for key words, phrases and sub-headings to help them.
Living and Learning
In Year 5 and 6 we have been discussing how we use the 8 Rs to help us learn. We talked about the strategies that we use the most. The children identified that a lot of them feel they show resilience in their learning and that they are always ready to learn. We then discussed which of the 8 Rs they need to use more. Some children explained that they needed to take more safe risks in school by putting their hand up more in class. Well done to those children who used personal experiences to talk about the 8 Rs.
Steph’s Packed Lunch
What a fantastic day! Today, some children from 5/6M had the opportunity to appear on live TV. They used the picture book, After The Fall, as inspiration for designing a set of flower planters.
Leeds Needs Trees
Leeds City Council have launched a scheme to increase the number of trees around the city. Collect tree seeds (conkers, acorns, beech nuts and sweet chestnuts) and take them to a collection point around the city. The Arium is the closest one to school and you will be helping create new habitats for birds and animals.

5/6B Certificate Celebration
Another fantastic week passes as 5/6B pupils continue to present themselves as fantastic role models for the school. We have been working really hard this week to remind ourselves of the 8 R’s for learning and why they are so important both inside and outside of school. Unfortunately, I cannot give a certificate to every pupil (as much as I want to!), so here are this week’s certificate winners:
For great living and learning skills –
Elijah – You have displayed lots of our 8 R’s for learning this week. You have been ready when asked, resilient in your learning and showed great responsibility when helping another pupil outside. Well done, Elijah!
For sport and physical activity –
Kyle – You always show great resilience during our daily miles. You work well independently and in a group in physical activity. You are very responsive and a brilliant role model. Great work, Kyle.
For great learning –
Dylan – You have shown such a mature and brilliant learning attitude from the moment you started in year 6. You are always ready to learn, responsible for the work you do and very reflective – you use this as a chance to improve your learning further. Keep it up, Dylan.

Wicked Writing!
Last week, Year 5 and 6 have been writing some very interesting pieces about events and memories from their pasts. We have been looking to remember our ‘must dos’ when writing, such as capital letters, full stops to end sentences and legible handwriting.
Here are a few of our fantastic pieces from 5/6B!
Well done Alexa and Ellis!
