Today as part of our science work we went into our school grounds to hunt for mini beasts! We all had so much fun and there was a lot of excitement and a lot of screaming!

6C had a lovely time on Wednesday morning with their buddies. The Reception children had decorated boxes and filled them with things related to them. A great way for us to get to know our buddies a bit better!

In Week 2, we went on a local area visit to Adel Woods, which is part of the Meanwood Valley Trail. This is part of our Year 6 curriculum and ties into our current reading, geography and science work in class.

The children had a great time exploring the woodland in our local area, improving their geography field skills and identifying plants and animals that are present in our local area. We also collected leaves which we brought back to school and used them to support our work on classification in science!

This year’s Forbidden Corner trip was a huge success! The children had an amazing time exploring the strange rooms, tunnels and mazes. We cannot wait to go back again next as it is one of the highlights of the year!

6TC had an amazing sports day! The weather was fantastic and there was such a good atmosphere, with all of the children encouraging and supporting each other! Birkdale were the overall winners but everyone who took part should be proud of their efforts! Well done everyone!

More field events!

A few from the track!

Did you know that we have an amazing vegetable garden here at ACE? Today, children in 6TC helped in our community garden -weeding, tidying and gardening. Here they are showing off some of the delicious strawberries they picked!

Hi everyone! We have made it to How Stean Gorge and we are having a great time so far!

We started off with some activities this afternoon. Some groups did orienteering, another group went caving and the final group went on the via feratta.

The girls in this group pushed through their fears and made it through the cave!

More pics of the via ferrata boys…

In the evening we played some games on the field! Hopefully everyone will be tired and ready for an early night! 😅

I am so proud of these amazing children who have worked so hard over the last few weeks and gave it their all in their SATs exams! Whatever the outcome, you all did amazing and showed a fantastic attitude! Well done!

We celebrated with a fun afternoon in the sun! We had a rounders tournament against the other classes in Year 6. It was such a lovely afternoon and it was so nice to see so many, happy, smiling faces…. Oh, and a big thank you to Miss Coope for bringing in the ice lollies!

On Tuesday we had an amazing virtual reality workshop in school. We explored the Mayan ruins at Chichen Itza!

This was an amazing experience and all of us had a fantastic time. What a great way to start our new topic, ‘Mayan Mysteries’!

This half term we have been enjoying learning to play the ukulele in our music lessons. So far we have learnt the F, C and D minor chords. Both Mrs Cossavella and Mr Clayton have been extremely impressed with how the children in 6TC have been doing!
