  • All things Cornwall - Tue 07 Oct 2014

    Tue 07 Oct 2014

    Year six are getting well and truly stuck in with their Cornwall project so far.  Our literacy has been centred around a Michael Morpurgo story set in Cornwall called 'The Giant's Necklace', which has led to some exciting work on the RNLI. Mrs Tilley came in to tell the children about the amazing work carried out by the RNLI and coastguard -as well as giving some of our children a chance to dress up in the full rescue uniform. 

    Furthermore, we are learning about the landscape, economy and culture of Cornwall through geography, music and art. We even had a chance to try some traditional Cornish pasties, kindly provided by Mrs Lipsham.  Here are some pictures of our project so far:

  • Year 6 Lifeboat Stations - Tue 07 Oct 2014

    Tue 07 Oct 2014
    Year 6 have spent the last two days completing their first DT project.  This has tested both  their  construction prowess and their understanding of electricity.  First, the children had to build a sturdy frame out of wood, then create a reversible switch, so that a model lifeboat could be lowered from the station then reeled back in.  The children worked together brilliantly and we have some excellent results, which we are hoping to show our younger pupils next week.  Here are some photos of the children in action - pictures of the finished articles to follow ASAP!
