The photographs and information below show you some of Year 5's 2025-2026 academic learning journey...
Children have written a character description of Hugo Cabret.
This included his appearance, personality and back story. Some brilliant language and application of features.
We studied different artists and their 'styles'. We used different media to replicate our own. We enjoyed looking at how the same picture can look so different!
We enjoyed our 'abstract art' unit where we had to use many influences to create our own pieces of abstract art.
We really enjoyed our DT work using cams and gears to create our own working toy prototype!
Maple have been learning French (whilst Ash have been learning Violin). This will swap at Easter.
We love this piece of extra home learning by Tilly. A paper mache model of the Alps mountain range. Well done!
