Elm class - Year 6

We got to learn how to aim and fire rifles today with many of Elm class managing to hit the targets! 

Elm class have been learning all about world war 2. To find out how the children must of felt during their evacuations, we experienced our very own. We got our suitcases and gas masks and lined up ready to be chosen by our new families (Mrs Gladwin and Mrs Adams)!

Practicing  knots and lashings to mount our natural paint art.

Can you create a safe bunker to hide?

We shredded ivy leaves then boiled them on the fire and filtered the liquid to make washing soap. It made a smooth lather to wash with.

We ground the conkers to a fine powder to make washing soap for our dirty washing. WW2 washing was tough work.

Soap made from either ivy or conkers to find that washing in WW2 was really hard work.

Hot chocolate and s'mores on a damp afternoon.

We had a challenge to make our own games using natural materials - football with a wood cookie and logs for goals!

Elm Class formed their own rock band and performed as a class - great fun!

Elm class have been learning some new basketball skills!

Elm class made crumble in the forest!
