MR. DUNNE'S 5TH/6TH CLASS
​2020/2021

Toilet Roll Cars

ACE Performance

Following on from the great fun we had with them during Active Week, we had ACE Performance in again for a PE lesson. It was great fun. 

Creating Water Filters

Dance For PE

The classes enjoyed making dance routines as part of PE over the last few weeks!

World Down Syndrome Day

To celebrate World Down Syndrome Day on 21st March, we wore odd socks into school!!!

Easter Egg Hunt

A little lamb came to visit us - a real sign of spring!

Raising the flag for the Daily Mile

Bake Offs

Bake off fever has gripped our classroom over the last few weeks, with the students taking part in baking as part of their homework every fortnight. The students, and teachers alike have enjoyed tasting eachother's baking. We have made lemon drizzle cake, brownies and chocolate biscuit cake.
Tune in for more lovely treats over the next few weeks.

The Big Dig

US Election

Excitement gripped the classroom, like most of the world, in relation to the US Presidential election between Donald Trump and Joe Biden. The class took part in a mock election where Joe Biden was a landslide winner! There was no talk of voter fraud or a rigged election here!

Happy Halloween!!

Welcome Ratta!

A teddy bear has caused quite a stir in our class. We welcome Ratta to our class who travelled all the way from Sweden to make his home in our classroom for the year!

Maths Week

Among some of the activities we completed for Maths week, the class took part in a maths trail in the school.

Space Week

5th and 6th class had great fun taking part in multiple activities for Space week. The class undertook the task of creating their own planet. These planets were made then using balloons, paper mache and paint. They loved this and there were some really creative ideas.

In addition to this, the class had a Space Week Explorers camp with EPIC through zoom. This was extremely interesting and engaging.

Our Return to School

It was a great to get back to school this week after the extended break. The children in 5th and 6th were evidently happy to get back into the swing of things. Full steam ahead for a great year!
