Click here Year 6 are all working hard this week having a mock SATS practice. This will help to prepare them for the tests in May and help the staff to identify further areas for development.
On Wednesday 5th February, 2 teams of year 6 students attended the first round of the Rotary Primary School Quiz at North Tawton Primary School. The A team were narrowly pipped into 2nd place in the final round and the B team finished 4th. Their second placing qualified the A team for the final which was held at Okehampton College on Wednesday 12th February. Facing stiff competition from many of the local primary schools at this final, they finished a very creditable 6th. Very well done to both teams!
Year 6 have all had a fantastic day at Bristol Zoo. They've explored it's beautiful surroundings, come up close to lemurs, stroked a blue tongue skink, held a mealworm and watched penguins being fed.
They are all now thoroughly excited about watching Matilda this evening. The children have enjoyed another beautiful, sunny day in Bristol. At the SS Great Britain, the children all took part in a workshop based on the incredible work of Isambard Kingdom Brunel and had a tour of the ship itself. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and learnt lots about this amazing ship.
We then headed to the M Shed museum where we found out all about Bristol and its history. We also saw an original piece of what is thought to be Banksy artwork. They will all sleep well tonight! There are two new photo galleries showing today's photos to the right of this text. You may need to scroll down to see the second one. The year 6 children all arrived safely and enjoyed a picnic lunch in Castle Park. They spent the afternoon climbing before settling into their accomodation. After dinner, they embraced the social opportunities of being with friends and without electronic gadgets with some good, old fashioned board games.
You can see some photos are below: A very excited Year 6 (along with with Year 4) were very lucky to visit The Warner Bros Harry Potter Studios. After an early start and a long bus journey, the children were all very excited to start exploring the sets where filming for the popular film series took place, see the incredible props and costumes and, most importantly, take lots of photos! It was a fantastic day which the children thoroughly enjoyed. The real chess pieces that were used on set and a visit to Privet Drive.
Junior Life Skills took place on Tuesday 25th September. This provided an opportunity for the children to learn some important skills such as basic resuscitation, water safety and understanding the role of important services like Fire and Rescue. It was a great afternoon!
