Year 5 had a fantastic day celebrating our love of reading. To start the day, we enjoyed a football/book quiz, which was hosted by professional footballers and authors alike. We also took part in a virtual author talk to find out about the process of writing and illustrating a book - the children were even taught how to draw one of the main characters from his book 'InvestiGators'. 

We also focused our learning on the picture book 'Flotsam', discussed our understanding of the story and thought about what we would have done if we were in the main character's position. Why not ask your children about the book and what they thought of the story? 

We were also amazed by the effort everyone had put into their outfits and would like to thank parents and carers for their creativity! Please take a look at some pictures below of Year 5's World Book Day. 

Both Year 5 classes had excellent days completing their MasterChef projects. They had to work as a team and follow instructions to ensure they produced a meal everyone could enjoy. The children amazed the staff in Year 5 with their patience and cooking ability, they even managed to teach Mr Hirst, who has only stepped into a kitchen once before, a few cooking techniques.

We would also like to thank all of the adults, who were able to attend and taste the children's food. Please take a look at the pictures below of some of the children and their food.
