We began the week with an assembly about Remembrance and why it is so important for us 'Not To Forget'. We thought about, and gave thanks for the people who help protect others now, and who have done so in the past. We remembered those who have been hurt or killed as a result.
Today we observed a two minute silence on the playground and throughout the week children have been engaged in lessons based around remembrance.
In year five we’ve been loving our space science topic. We made this model of our solar system using balloons and paper mache. It was great fun and has helped us think about the size and order of the planets. We also got out in the playground and used our bodies to learn how the earth and moon move around the sun to create day, night and seasons. It was a good workout, particularly if you were the moon and had to try and orbit the earth as it was also orbiting the sun!
The children in primary 5 have been learning about Islam religion last half-term and they were very lucky today to have a visit from Imran. Imran is a Muslim living in Bolton and he delivered an engaging lesson about ‘What is it like to live in Britain when you are a Muslim.’
He told the children about some of the fundamental beliefs and practices of Islam and also about some famous people who are Muslim and live in Britain.
He then showed a video of the temple that he visits in Bolton and told them all about some religious objects
Today, the Fire Service came to visit and teach us how and when to use CPR. We learnt a different ABC ensuring we keep ourselves safe too.
KS1 learnt about all the different roles the fire service have - they don't just fight fires!
