That's it from Chestnut class for this year. Goodbye and see you in September!

With news of the Bayeux Tapestry coming to the @britishmuseum, we decided to look back at our imagined images from that period - before we learnt what actually happened! (via https://t.co/eaCem6TQKJ)

We've been working on 3D toy models using a variety of techniques in a special session with Bow Arts this morning

We've been investigating water resistance by building boats with different surface area hulls #STEM

We started the week celebrating Olga's successes in athletics, swimming (our first swimming gala) and football with children from our class in all teams. Scott showed us the trophies and Lisa was pleased that we had won by behaving/playing kindly with other schools.

Thanks Lotte! Here at Olga we powered through an hour's PE lesson of passing and shooting techniques in netball today before it could get too hot. Everybody - girls and boys - got the chance to have have a go 🏀🙂

We've been on the literary high seas with @JustinSomper and his Pirate Academy books this afternoon ☠️

We were very happy to welcome a team from @MorpethSch who talked to all our Y5s about life in secondary school and the particular setup of Morpeth. We look forward to visiting later in the month!

We had a great time at our school Sports Day yesterday, our first time at Mile End Stadium! 🏅

We were proud to learn about and commemorate the 80th anniversary of VE Day yesterday 🇬🇧

We had a day out working with @IntoUniversity again today. Our focus was on Performing Arts and we built on our improving teamwork to make proscenium arches together

[Chestnut @OlgaChestnut]

We're continuing an emphasis on working efficiently with teamwork this week, this time to sequence images from a short film to understand different forms of narrative for English 🎞️

Today's RE task - thinking about animals' place in our world, and how two religions think about them 😻

We're back at school for the summer term. Today we visited East London Mosque to learn more about this important centre for the Islamic faith in our community.
