Yr 6 Light Session with BBS

This afternoon, Yr 6 had a visit from Ms Hughes, from the BBS Science department. Ms Hughes led a session on light with the children and made use of some exciting resources such as light boxes and prisms. This built on from the Light Dome Experience this morning and Ms Hughes was very impressed by the children’s existing knowledge about light!

What a brilliant day our children have had!

Yr 6 Light Dome Experience

Year 6 had a visit from the Light Dome Explorer Experience today.

Each class had a session in the dome and looked at all things light: what light is, how it travels, shadows, spectrums of light, reflection, primary & secondary colours, how the sun creates energy to power most things, how far away space really is and more!

The session was amazing, the children learned a lot and had lots of fun!

Yr 6 BBC 500 Words Competition

As part of our efforts to raise the profile of writing, every child in the school has the opportunity to enter the BBC 500 Words Writing Competition.

Children of all abilities are encouraged to use their creativity and imagination to write a story they would love to read without the pressure of having to worry about spelling, punctuation and grammar.” – BBC 500 Words website. 

Entries must be submitted digitally, so Yr 6 children have been allowed to take their writing home with them, to be submitted at home.  Children have had multiples opportunities in school to write an entry, so everyone should have something that they can submit.

Please see the website for more information on the competition included rules, prizes and how to submit: https://www.bbc.co.uk/teach/500-words

Many thanks.
