Year 6 2021-22

 Year 6 have been learning about life cycles and how flowers reproduce. As part of this learning, we learnt the names for the parts of a flower. Yesterday, we dissected roses, chrysanthemums and lilies to see if we could identify the different parts. It was so interesting to see what the different flowers looked like inside! We had a lot of questions about what we discovered.  Later on we watched a video about botanical illustrators . We were surprised to learn that this was a possible career choice!  

  Today was a bittersweet day; Year 6 were this week's joint Golden Ticket winners for our fantastic walking around the school and how quickly we settled to learning time. We also had several sweet treats, including these amazing chocolate muffins which were prepared very carefully for us! However, it was our last day with Mrs Holian, who is about to start maternity leave. We spent a lot of time this week making fantastic congratulations and good luck for her. Year 6 had a lot of fun finding baby jokes to add to the cards! Mrs Holian also gave us awesome personalised pencils, several sweet treats, and three class presents. We're really excited to read 'Amazing Muslims Who Changed the World'  by Burhana Islam, to hatch our 'dinosaur egg' and to play the Yes! No! Game. Thank you so much, Mrs Holian! We've really enjoyed you being our teacher and we can't wait to meet your baby!
