Leigh Trip
Year 5 had a fantastic day on their local visit to Leigh. They walked through the historic town, stopping at key points and learning about the local history. We then arrived at the beach, where they enjoyed chips and visited the Leigh Heritage Centre to learn more about the ‘little ships’ that sailed to Dunkirk. We all had a great day and the sun even came out for us!

Week 2 - Test Date Friday 6th March
Before the shop opened, a long queue formed outside the new restaurant.
With a puzzled look, she tried to recognise the tune and the rhyme.
During the meeting, the secretary said that she would recommend a more relevant topic for next time.
As the music slowed, he tapped the rhythm on his shoulder and his friend laughed.
Without hesitation, they agreed to sacrifice their break so they could finish the task.
Celebrations and Achievements
Star of The Week
The Trade Game
The children had great fun learning about world trade during our lesson. We looked at different size countries and how their resources affected their level of trade. The children were put in teams and had to produce different shapes for different amounts. They all had different amounts of resources and this represented the trading power of different countries.
