Maths in Action! Year 5 are taking part in the Somerset Counts Maths Project with Mrs Lamb, as part of this we are exploring problem solving through worked examples. Today, we got hands on and used lots of different ways to solve a cinema seating problem!

Children’s Mental Health Week - This year the theme is ‘This is my place’ We thought about places which make us feel happy and respected such as home, school, church and clubs.

History: Today we thought carefully about Holocaust Memorial Day which is a national commemoration day in the United Kingdom dedicated to the remembrance of the Jews and others who suffered in the Holocaust, under Nazi persecution. It was first held in January 2001 and has been on the same date every year since. The children watched today's Newsround Round Up and then followed this up watching Holocaust: Finding my Family a Newsround Special. The children were so engaged and asked lots of amazing and thoughtful questions demonstrating our school value of Curiosity!

We spoke about how this has happened in the past and how it is a vital part of history to remember those who sadly lost their lives in this awful way.
