Lambourne End

We met in the classroom and the teachers put us in groups and gave us wristbands. Then we set off to Lambourne End, the coach was nice and comfortable it took 20 minutes to get there. When we arrived it was boiling. We met some of the Lambourne End staff and went to our first activity. There were three activities; archery, teambuilding and a rope course. The staff showed us how to load and shoot in archery, at the end of the day about 6 people had hit the bullseye in archery.



In teambuilding we had to help each other over a high wall, there were three of these wall one higher than the rest, we also had to go a distance of about 5-10 metres by using just 5 tyres. Some groups had to get through a large spider web without touching it.



Last but not least was the ropes course in which we had to get to the other side of a lake, without falling into the water, there were three tests around ten people fell in for example Josaphat, Umar,Zain,Agash,Simran and Abraham, the water was muddy and deep though no one drowned. It was a really exciting day and most of us liked it.

The Lion King

This week in year 6 we have been practicing our school play, which is, The Lion King! We are lucky enough to have Mrs Robinson (music teacher) teaching us all the songs, as well as her son (Ellis) teaching us the proper Thriller dance which he learnt from the background dancer with Michael Jackson!

We also want to share some of the cast:

. Simba when he was a cub - Marium 6w
. Simba when he is an adult - Qasim 6m
. Simba's Mum - Phoebe 6w
. Mufasa - Jordon 6m
. Timon - Kamile 6w
. Pumbaa-Benita 6w
. Rafiki- Cameron 6m
. Zazu - Aaran 6w
.Nala when was young - Ayse 6m
.Nala when was an adult - Callie 6m
. The hyena - Patrice, Harpreet and Chante (Main Charecters)

As well as practicing our play, we also did some really really arty subjects. Such as maths stars, model of a volcanoe and a book cover for our finished class book, Kensuke's Kingdom. We are really enjoying our time at school as we have finished giving evidence to our secondary school.

So this is what all the Year 6 children have been doing, while our teachers have been levelling our work.
