Bikeability

Year 5 started their bikeability training today -  helping to ensure they are safe, confident cyclists.
Today they learnt about safety checks and tomorrow will be heading out onto the roads.
Remember to bring coats and gloves as it will be very cold this week!

Topic words about Conservation

The day 5/6 were evacuated...

In September 1939, 800,000 children left their urban city homes to find safety in the countryside. The call came too, to the year 5/6 children of Hythe Primary School, who were evacuated to a safer place.

First they met the billeting officer, who would be assigning them to their new homes.

Then they learnt about life in their new village and how clothes and food would be rationed. They even got to try on some ARP warden clothes!

There was even a practice of what would happen in the event of the air raid siren being started.

After that, there was time to play with 1939's must have toy: a stick and a hoop.

One team with their launch-ready rocket! 

Programming Lego Mindstorms: these little devices are 'intelligent bricks'.

Some of the children seem to have shrunk. And some reach the ceiling! 

Using hands to complete the electrical circuit. As you do. 

Inside the intestines, where else?! 

And this. :-)
