It’s been a tricky week for Year 5 this week, not only have we had to contend with a very warm, sweaty classroom but we’ve also had to complete our final Year 5 assessments in that warm, sweaty classroom!

I have been so impressed with how sensible and mature everyone’s approaches to these assessments have been, the children have put in 1000% effort and it has really, really paid off! A HUGE well done to all of you!!

In between those assessments we have stated our final art project too, we are looking at the artist Hans Holbein the younger and some of his incredible portraits of royals and nobles. This week the children were give half of a painting of Henry VIII and they had to complete the other half as a sketch themselves. One word… INCREDIBLE! I was truly blown away by how incredible everyone’s pictures were and it was a pleasure to see how hard everyone worked to ensure they included as much detail as possible in their amazing pieces of artwork.

We also squeezed in a few games of our new favourite game.. rounders! Just as a little treat for completing our assessments. I must say, the children played fantastically well, especially as the games progressed. I can’t wait until we get the chance for another game!

Overall it has been yet another wonderful week!

Have a great weekend everyone!
