Library Visit

5HC thoroughly enjoyed their very first visit to our brand new school library this week. The children were inspired by the fantastic range of books to choose from. They even got to use the library scanner to scan out their books.

We can't wait for our next visit.

A journey down the River Tyne

As part of our explorers topic, we used the Geograph tool in Digimaps to track the River Tyne from source to mouth.

The Nowhere Emporium

After reading the thrilling novel of The Nowhere Emporium, we designed and created our own Book Trailers. Watch and Enjoy. Hopefully they will inspire you to read the book.

How mountains are formed

As part of our Explorers topic, we investigated how different mountains were formed. All of the children thoroughly enjoyed the investigation. They particularly enjoyed investigating how the volcanic mountain was formed.
