Classroom Olympics

As part of our Olympic themed week, we held our own 'Classroom Olympics'  maths lesson. The events included:
              • Straw javelin
              • Cotton ball shot put
              • Paper plate discus throw
              • High Jump
              • Giant step
              • Side Step

 Side Step

Straw Javelin

 Accurately measuring the distance thrown

High Jump

Cotton Ball Shot Put


The results were collated and the children designed their own databases to work out the overall results.

Well done Jamie. Overall winner with 4 gold medals and 4 medals over all. Closely followed by Robbie, with 1 gold, 1 silver and 2 bronze, another super 4 medal haul and a fantastic effort!

Water Filters

As part of our Geography topic on water, following our visit to the water treatment works,  we made our own water filters.  

When we compared the dirty water with our filtered water, we found out that each of the filters had some success at cleaning water.  

Which filter would you choose as being the most efficient?

Clay Containers

As promised, here are a selection of our finished clay containers.
