Term 1

Our Topic this term is entitled 'Fit For Life'.

What Will Stay With You Forever? How Does Blood Circulate Around Your Body? How Does The Heart Work? 

Your body is the most valuable thing you will ever own. It is our responsibility to keep our bodies fit and healthy (because they have to keep working for a really long time)! This term we are going to find out how best you can do that. Through a range of science investigations and demonstrations we will explore the importance of physical and mental health, wellbeing, and the factors which may affect it.

Year 6 have enjoyed an exciting first few days back in school with their 'Fit for Life' learning lift off! Over the past few days, we have been learning about 'superfoods' and the benefits that a healthy and nutritional diet has on the organs in our body.

The children planned and made a nutritional smoothie containing 'superfoods' - there were some very interesting combinations, however the children kept the main goal of the nutritional benefits in mind when mixing such foods as lemon, yogurt, ginger, banana, spinach and kale.

Mrs Thompson was invited into class for a 'Dragon's Den' style sales pitch from the children and enjoyed sampling every single one of the concoctions!
