Building the Matthew 7.2.17

This term year 6 are studying explorers and their link to Bristol's local history.  We have focused particularly on John Cabot and his voyage in 1497 when he made contact with Newfoundland, Canada.  As part of this topic, we were lucky enough to participate in a workshop where we worked in teams to build a model of the Matthew, Cabot's ship.  Once decorated, these boats will be raced as part of Bristol's Harbourside festival in July.

Maths week 6.2.17

This week is maths week.  Each class has been given a £15 budget to purchase and make a product to sell on Friday.  Year 6 have chosen to make accessories.  So far we have made loom bands to sell and later this week we will be making bespoke pin badges to sell on Friday.
