Year Group Reports
Year 5
Reported by: Lucy Gray & Jake
Woods
We have really enjoyed our first term
in Year 5, even though it is very
different to Year 4 and First School. It is
different because you are relied on a lot
more and you have to move around a lot by yourself. This year we have also been split in to two form
groups and this has taken some getting used to as we have been used to working as one big group.
One of the different subjects we have enjoyed the most is double catering. We have made Croque
Monsieur, fruit salad and cheese dip. They have all been lovely and I cannot wait until next term. Other
subjects that we have enjoyed are French in which we have been learning how to introduce ourselves
and Spanish where we have learnt how to describe ourselves. In our Humanities subjects, we have been
learning about the different skills that we will be working on during Middle School and in History, we
have been learning how to examine evidence and reach answers by solving a murder mystery. We have
also been enjoying our E3 sessions, which have given us an opportunity to experience activities that we
have not done before. These include: cross country, outside art club and the Great Scarisbrick Bake Off.
In Wellbeing, we have been creating an ‘Online Safety’ campaign and have created posters to advise
Middle School students on how to stay safe on line. In our other Wellbeing sessions, we have enjoyed
creating the ‘Perfect Pupil’ and creating targets to help us stay organised.
We have also been involved in different sporting and school activities and have enjoyed successes in
both football and netball. For example, in football we played against Ashbridge and won 5-2 and in
netball we played against Ashbridge and won 42-7. As well as sporting activities we have been able to get
involved in helping to improve school facilities and speak up for the Scarisbrick students by being voted
into the School council as the Year 5 council reps and are looking forward to helping the school in any
way that we can.

Year 6
Year 6 have had an exciting start to the year, as explained by a few of our roving
reporters from 6I and 6R:

In Drama this year, we have been doing about the Twits, making up our own scenes.
The stories we have done are the worms in the spaghetti and the walking stick. We
worked as a team to put plays together in our groups.

This year, we have been busy doing cookery lessons. We have learned
how to use knives, graters and peelers safely, and all about different parts of the cooker.
Also, we have been doing netball matches (home & away) and so far we have won them all!
This year our Pantomime is Aladdin, and we have started bringing it together.

We were chosen for the U11 football team, we go to training every week and play matches most
weeks. We have won two matches so far this season, but we have drawn many! We look
forward to playing more games of football and hopefully winning!
