Busines Name

5HP have been involved in a project called Blow the Wind Southerly. They learnt songs from the north-east and then had a super workshop where they performed with professional musicians and learnt dances from our area too. Some of the class joined with other schools to perform the songs for parents at Dryden. Some great voices in Year 5 - watch out for a performance in our school next term!

We have enjoyed a visit from a cook who runs the Side Restaurant in Newcastle, who taught us all about how our tongue tastes food. Some of us went to the restaurant to cook a healthy balanced meal. Mrs Robson visited Year 5 to tell us all about the Playground Buddy System, we then wrote letters and were interviewed for the positions. We now have four Year 5 buddies working daily in the playground, helping and talking to children who need a friend. We also loved our visit to Heworth Grange CLC where we learnt how to collect data, via data logging. As well as making Lego robots, that actually moved.
