Celebrating Children - Year 5 Maple: Miss Griffiths and Palm: Miss Neill Nov 16: Viking Day in Year 5 Today has been a very exciting day in Year 5 as we started our Viking topic with a roar! We began with role-playing the very first Viking raid on Lindisfarne monastery - we played the parts of vicious Vikings and poor, defenceless monks which inspired some fab story writing back in class! We then spent the afternoon brushing up on our painting skills with some excellent watercolour paintings of Viking longboats. The children showed fantastic focussing skills and made a start on some beautiful paintings. Also, we channelled our inner farmers, beginning to spruce up our class planter, ready for some home-grown vegetables, just like Viking settlers would have grown. Staff would like to thank Year 5 for their super imagination and engagement in today’s activities! Well done!
