Another fun week of learning in Year Six as children learnt about the cardiovascular and respiratory systems during their Science lessons!

Year 6 completed their cardiovascular circuits in PE this week. It was tough but we definitely got those hearts pumping!

Yesterday, Year 6 learnt how to use texture and tone in their one-point perspective Artwork. Well done!

Today Year Six have learnt about LS Lowry and one-point perspective. Children used their knowledge of vanishing points and horizon lines to complete drawings. Well done, Year Six!

In Science this week, children have created their own shadow puppets to retell fairytales. We have learnt that the closer an object is to a light source, the more light it blocks, resulting in a larger shadow.

Brilliant game! ⚽️
