As part of our ‘What was the impact of the railways on people in Nottingham?’ topic, Year 6 have recently visited Woodthorpe park where we had a great time searching for evidence of the old railway lines, tunnels and bridges.
Another highlight of the term was a visit from premier league referee Ruebyn Ricardo, who inspired us all with his story of rising from tragedy to triumph. It was amazing to hear about all the famous footballers and big competitions that he has refereed for!
Earlier in the half term, a group of year 6 children took part in the epic residential to Walesby where they engaged in a wide variety of outdoor activities. For many of the children, this was one of their first opportunities to explore a woodland environment; building dens, climbing trees, listening to ghost stories, and simply enjoying the wonder of nature with their friends.
They also rose to the challenge of incredible outdoor adventure activities, including climbing the fearsome wobble pole, an assault course, laser tag, kayaking and canoeing on the lake. It was inspiring to see so many overcome personal fears and achieve things they never thought possible! It was an unforgettable experience for all.
Year 6 had a fantastic time on their trip to the Nottingham Climbing Centre! The children got the chance to try out two different types of climbing – bouldering and rope climbing. Bouldering involves climbing shorter walls without ropes, using only mats for safety and rope climbing is a bit higher and uses harnesses and ropes for support which makes it a fun challenge. The children thoroughly enjoyed both activities, and it was great to see their confidence grow throughout the day. Some of the more nervous children were brave enough to give it a go and were surprised at how much they enjoyed the experience. The trip was a brilliant way to try something new, work together, and have fun while keeping active.
Year 6 have worked extremely hard this year – hard work that has certainly paid off as their SATs results were absolutely fantastic! As a treat for all of their efforts, we had an action-packed day of fun in the sun! There was an inter-class football tournament, picnics, pupil vs teacher races and a lot of sun cream! Well done Year 6 – you earned it!
