Looking back:
We had a lovely time at Bridgewater Hall yesterday, listening to and playing along with the world famous Hallé orchestra. It was a great experience and the children were fantastic.
In English, the children have been really enjoying Anthony Browne’s retelling of King Kong and they are gearing up to writing their own story based on this book.
In maths, we are close to completing our unit of work on shape – the children have done really well with angles.
Year 5 – Pupils’ Highlights:
- We really enjoyed the trip to Bridgewater Hall and it was amazing listening to a full orchestra.
