Autumn Poetry and Art

In literacy we have been writing Haikus to describe Autumn. We have also made Autumn art in the style of Andy Goldsworthy, a famous artist.

The berries are sweet
The leaves are falling off trees
That is in autumn.

by AB

Crimson leaves dropping.
Blue sky shining down on land.
Brown conkers so nice.

by JJ

Sapphire blue sky,
Leaves Fluttering from the trees,
Autumn starts today.

By LE

Autumn Time
Crispy golden leaves,
Soft fluffy dandelions,
Cotton wool up high.

By LH

Smooth and rusty leaves,
How tall and thin they may be,
Floating past conker trees.

By AP

Squirrels squealing
On the branches
Eating conkers while sleeping madly.

By RP

Squirrel eating nuts
Leaves turn golden in Autumn
Birds sing beautifully.

Outward Bound

Last week most of year 5 went to the Outward Bound centre in Ullswater in the Lake District. This is what we got up to:

At Ullswater my favourite part was the tunniling. I was in Ms Turner’s group. My instructor was Pete and he was a very good instructor. He was very nice at some points. JP

At Ullswater , we went hill walking , gorge walking (which is climbing a waterfall) and tunnelling. LF

At Ullswater we went to do jog and dip. I got very wet but it was funny. AB

At Ullswater I really enjoyed doing the gorge walking because I got soaking wet and I love climbing. I also liked building the raft and canoeing across the lake. I found the hill walk very tiring and I found the night walk very challenging. L.E.

I really enjoyed Ullswater because it is an enjoyable place to be. You have lots of fun and do lots of activities. My favourite part about Ullswater was everything!!!! I found mountain climbing and gorge walking challenging and I thought I’d never be able to climb them but i did. I didn’t give up on any of the activities. AP

I loved Ullswater because it was the most fun I have ever had. My favourite bit was tunnelling because when I and Rw Oc Jp came out the tunnels and left the girls in there so all of us had to go back in to find them. I was in Scott group!!!! LJB

My Group by JP

At Ullswater I enjoyed Gorge walking because you got really wet! I also enjoyed canoeing because you got to discover rocks that were about 2 or 3 years old. My worst bit about Ullswater was climbing up the mountain because the bags were really heavy! By R.P.
The best part at Ullswater was the hill day because we made a den. The second best bit was the food it was delicious. And the worst part was doing the chores. LJ

When we went to Ullswater we did lots of activities and my favourite one was Hill day because it was fun but also tiring. We took big back packs to take our water in and to take other stuff. My second favourite was canoeing because it was my first time out deep and it was really scary because J kept shaking the canoe and I wouldn`t stop screaming but it was worth it. Ullswater is really good I slept in a dorm with AD, CD and JT and also me. PH

On the 10th of October to the 14th our year went to a trip called the outward bound centre we did a lot of activities like gorge walking, rock climbing, building a raft, hill walking and much more. My favourite was gorge walking and hill walking but my favourite was gorging. Gorge walking is climbing up a waterfall but it is really challenging because of the current and slippery rocks. SL

The thing I think that was challenging in Ullswater was the hill day because I thought I wasn’t going to make it to the top but after a few hours I did it. After we had to go down a steep side. RW

Some of us stayed at school but we still had a great time:

I really enjoyed jogging around the field for the health and fitness test. I jogged around the field 13 times with K.F. It was really challenging to make a football out of plastic bags. AB

All about our brains

This half term we have been learning about our brains and how we learn.

Here are some of the facts we have researched:

The brain is light-pink and grey
The brain sends messages to all the parts of the body
A.P and L.J.B

When your brain stops working the whole system stops working because the messages from the brain are cut off.
Your brain develops all the time from the day you were born to when you die, it grows when you collect information. By L.F and A.B

The human brain is over three times as big as the brain of other mammals that are of similar body size. A.D

A skull fracture is a break in one or more of the bones in the skull usually occurring as a result of blunt force trauma . CC & CJ

Cerebrospinal fluid is fluid that protects the bran and stops germs going into it and cushions it. FP & CD

If you shake your head rapidly it will stop the brain from working. HW & JF

The brain is pink and grey.lc and jj

Only 10% of the brain is made of neurons and the rest of it is made of blood vessels. L.E

The skull doesn’t always protect the brain from germs.A.B

The brain is wrinkled because the surrounding fluids get sucked up and makes the brain all pruny.
The brain gets signals, adds them up and sends them in a split second.
L.J. and R.P.

A Brain by JF


The Brain is pink and grey.
Germs can get into your brain like meningitis From RW and CR.

The brain and the heart are important. If there was no brain the heart would not be able to work. If there is no heart the brain would not have enough blood to function.
If you’re a child your brain will weigh 5 pounds. O.C & D.S

Your brain helps you move your muscles and see and hear.
Your brain helps you hear see and move and think it can also store lots and lots of memory like when you’re favorite TV program starts stuff like that.
If you never had a brain you would be DEAD. OH NO!
By H.F and P.H.
