Y5 Green Fingers

14th December 2021

Year 5 planted blackberry bushes, raspberry canes, redcurrants, blackcurrants and rhubarb in the new countryside area at school.

Everyone’s looking forward to feasting on them in the summer!

This half term Y5 worked on completing a narrative piece of writing. They wrote an extra chapter to the book ‘Viking Boy’. The writing produced was of such a high caliber we decided to share it with the author of the book, Tony Bradman. Tony spoke to the children and answered lots of their questions, inspiring our budding writers of the future.
