Curriculum
D.T. and Art - Seasonal Produce and Ecological Architecture
In D.T. pupils have been learning about seasonal foods in the UK. They explored where our food comes from and how choosing seasonal produce can help reduce environmental impact and promote sustainability. The children took part in a food tasting session, sampling a range of seasonal vegetables, and used what they learned to design a nutritious meal using only seasonal fruits, vegetables, and proteins.
In their Art lessons, Year 5 have been exploring architecture - inspired by striking ecological designs. They’ve created detailed sketches focusing on form, structure, and materials. Next, we’ll begin an exciting new project exploring fashion design!
History - Ancient Greek Workshop - March 2025
Medusa, Aphrodite, Ariadne, Trojan soldiers, and Greek royalty all made an appearance at the Year 5 Ancient Greek workshop!
Pupils delved into the rich history and fascinating myths of Ancient Greece, bringing legendary tales to life. They marched in formation, wielding shields and swords, and marvelled at the sheer length of the soldiers' pikes.
Throughout the day, they enthusiastically re-enacted key moments from The Iliad, fully immersing themselves in the world of ancient warriors and gods.
Year 5 were truly spectacular!
