National Coal Mining Museum Trip

Year 5 visited the National Coal Mining Museum in Wakefield to learn what life would have been like for poor Victorian children working in mines. They enjoyed their underground tour, learning all about the different jobs there were and especially enjoyed meeting the horses and ponies.

Armley Mills Trip

We learnt so much about life for poor Victorian children when we visited the Victorian school room at Armley Mills. The children noticed so many differences and especially how harsh the rules and discipline were. Children should be seen and not heard!

Advent Workshop

Our Advent workshop was wonderful and enjoyed by the children, parents and staff alike. It was a lovely way to help us on our journey through Advent, towards the birth of Jesus at Christmas.

Oliver Leeds Playhouse

Year 5 had a wonderful visit to Leeds Playhouse to enjoy a production of Oliver. It was the perfect end to our Victorians topic and finishing reading of our class novel, Oliver Twist and some children said it was the best trip they had ever been on!

World Book Day 2024

Year 5 enjoyed reading with children from FS1 and Year 2 on World Book Day. In fact, it was so lovely, we’ve decided to read with each other every half term.

Lenten Workshop

Our Lenten workshop was wonderful and enjoyed by the children, parents and staff. It was a lovely way to help us on our journey through Lent, towards the wonderful celebration of Jesus’ resurrection at Easter.

Chocolate Workshop

What a fantastic Chocolate Workshop! The children said it was the ‘best ever’ though not quite as good as their residential apparently. As well as it being a great learning experience, they had so much fun creating their own chocolate pizzas and the end results were amazing!
