World of Water in year 5

Our current topic 'I have a dream...' looks at the difference that some people made in society in the past, as well as looking at the differences we can make in the future, particularly in relation to the environment! The Saints Foundation came to year 5 yesterday, to explain to us the importance of saving water and the different ways that we can save water in our homes and school! Everyone in year 5 took home some homework, which will be entered into a prize draw next monday when the Saints Foundation comes back to run some sporting activities! The winner will receive two tickets to watch a Saints game at St Mary's! Good luck everybody!

Rock n Roll Showcase!!!

Thank you to all the parents who made it to our rock n roll showcase last half term! We had great fun showing you all the different things we had learnt and created during our rock n roll topic! For those parents or carers that were unable to make it, here is a video of our dance that we created during some of our PE sessions! Enjoy!

News From The Maasi

PGL residential

Year 6 had a fantastic time on their residential last week! They got to experience a wide range of activities including: abseiling, quad biking, fencing, rifle shooting, climbing, archery and orienteering. Mrs Hemnell and Mrs O'Hara were very impressed with the determination and team work shown by the children. The wet weather didn't dampen spirits - it did mean there was plenty of mud to be found though!

Primary Science Fair

Our pupils from Year 6 attended the Primary Science Fair which was part of the Solent Skills Fest event held in Southampton. It was a fun packed day with loads of hands on activities for the children to take part in - including jelly bean towers, cocktail making (pretend ones!), a recycling challenge and using solar panels!

Intech Visit

Year 6 visited the hands on Science centre near Winchester - INTECH. The children really enjoyed the discovery section, pictured here, which included a music centre and an ideas for the future station! We also felt the planetarium show amazing!

Gardening time...

Here are Year 6 after they've just been giving their classroom garden a facelift as the Winter fast approaches. They've been planting as well so we should see some new life emerging in the Spring!
