Our debate on whether to have a class pet or not..., by Miss Nuttall
Date: 21st Feb 2018 @ 7:28pm
In English we have been busy with our persuasive writing. The question we were looking at was, should we have a class pet or not? The class were split in to for and against groups. They researched their reasons for and against having a class pet. We then arranged a debate where they could express their views. There were some well researched arguments put forward from both sides, however in the end the winners were the against team. Here are some pictures of our debate.

Jodrell Bank!, by Mr Jolly
Date: 16th Feb 2017 @ 5:13pm
On Wednesday 15th February, Year 5 travelled to Macclesfield to the site of Jodrell Bank, the 3rd largest working satellite in the world. At the time of opening, 60 years ago, it was the largest.
We had two workshops: Desitnation Space and Inflatable Planetarium. In the Destination Space one we looked at Tim Peake's mission and what astronauts get up to on the International Space Station. At the Inflatable Planetarium we went inside a huge bubble and saw what the sky was going to be like that evening as what we can see changes every night.
Please have a look at our pictures and a video of us creating fire!
