Year 6 News
Fri 28 Apr 2023It has been another busy week with lots of Maths, SPAG and reading work. We are really impressed with how well the children are working during our revision sessions. It's not long now - keep going! The children evaluated the carousels that they made before Easter and thought about what went well and what could be improved. We're also looking forward to our coronation celebrations next week. Enjoy the long weekend!

Year 5 News
Fri 28 Apr 2023Another good week in Year 5. In maths, we have been using a protractor to measure and draw angles which always proves to be a little tricky. However, the children have done really well. In English, we have continued or work on debating whether or not the Loch Ness Moster is real and the children have been writing a balanced argument to present the reasons for and against the monster's existence. In science, we have been looking at the solubility of different materials and making saturated solutions. Below are attached the spellings for next week. Please help your child to learn them. Have a lovely weekend!

Year 4 News
Fri 28 Apr 2023This week, we have been continuing with our topic of the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings, learning more about their way of life and place names that originated in these times. In English, we have written a letter from a Viking King trying the persuade the Anglo- Saxons to settle (clearly this did not work!). and have started to plan a story based on the How to Train your Dragon stories, having researched the author, Cressida Cowell.
We have enjoyed this but are looking forward to an extra day to the weekend next with Bank Holiday Monday. 🙂

Year 6 News
Fri 21 Apr 2023Year 6 have had a great week this week. We know it has been tricky for them with lots of SATS preperation going on but we are really proud of the resilience that they are displaying. As a token of their hard work and continued effort, we wanted to reward them with their own year 6 leavers hoody! We hope they like them! It is something they can take home, wear with pride and use as a token to remember the fantastic times that they have had during their education at Albany Junior School.

Year 5 News
Fri 21 Apr 2023It was so lovely to see all the children back after Easter. On Monday, we had our first swimming session. Whilst the children didn't spend much time in the pool, it was a really important session determining the pool they would be swimming in. We have started out new topic - Scotland - and have already had a debate in English about whether or not the Loch Ness Monster is real. In maths, we have been using a protractor to measure angles which is always a little tricky but they all did really well.
