Year 5 enjoyed the thrills of the great outdoors last week and ignited a passion for reading with the YHA Alex Rider Classified Mission

This week the children of Whetley got a visit from some very special creatures and learnt all about their wonderful lives.

Last week chaos broke out when Mrs Brown and Mr Paffetti suggested that PE be suspended to allow more SATs revision time in Year 6. In stepped Miss Stephenson, to save the day and suggest that Year 6 be given the chance to make their point in a very controversial oracy lesson. Here’s what they had to say.

This week’s oracy lesson in Year 6 cooked up quite a stir. The children have been learning how to use their voices in a clear, loud and powerful way. So repeat after me:
Coffee,
Cheese and biscuits,
Plums and custard,
Beef and carrots,
Fish and chips,
Soup.

The children in Year 6 are enjoying their brand new kindles so much that they wanted to share their experiences with everyone.
