Autumn
To end our topic on coasts, we visited Reculver Bay. We saw the sea defences and discussed how some parts of the coast there have no sea defences and is being worn away. The children learnt all about the habitat and the creatures that live within the rockpools, before searching for shark fossil teeth.
We had our first Forest School Day of the year in October. They children had lots of fun making bread, hot chocolate and cooked apples on the fire.
Year 6 made models of coastal features with explanations of how they are formed.
As part of our science topic- Living things and their habitats- year 6 have been out in the playground becoming taxonomists. They have been identifying, classifying and collecting data on the trees and plants we have in our school grounds.
Year 6 recently went on their Year 6 residential to the Isle of Wight. They all had a great time and pushed themselves to climb higher, paddle fast, aim better and fall quicker than they thought they could!
