Welcome to
Maple Class
(Year 5 & 6)
Autumn Term 2019
This term our project is....
With Great Power, Comes Great Responsibility
As part of our project we will be focusing on the key concepts of Power, Wealth and Influence with a history focus on ancient Egypt. We are looking forward to finding out about this powerful and wealthy ancient civilisation, as well as how it has influenced our lives today.
In English, we are reading the text 'Millions' by Frank Cottrell-Boyce. It is about two brothers, Damian and Anthony, who find a bag of money. What will they do with this sudden wealth? Will their actions be influenced by Damian's obsession with 'being excellent' and his knowledge of saints? We are looking forward to reading on to find out what happens next...
BMX Workshop
On Friday 13th September, we had a BMX stunt champion, Mike Mullen, in school to demonstrate his skills and explain to us the importance of having a growth mindset if you want to achieve something. The day started off with a brilliant assembly followed by a demonstration of his skills and then workshops for Year 5 & 6 when we got to have a go on the bikes. It was fantastic!
