Aspirations Week
As part of our aspirations week, Abbie came into school to speak to us about mechanical engineering. She was an inspiration to us all! We enjoyed the building bridges challenge. The bridges that were built by Carter, Jacob, Ana and Sapphire were strong enough to hold 3 to 4 metal spanners! We have some fabulous creative problem solvers in Y6!
Thank you Abbie for coming in to tell us about engineering.
Aspirations week – Travel agent!
Year 5 would really like to thank our lovely visitor for coming in to talk to us about his chosen career.
We learnt that as a travel agent, as well as enjoying travelling, you need to be good at listening, researching and managing money. You will also need to be good at interacting with other people, building trust and problem solving.
O said it was a very interesting presentation!
R said she would like to become a travel agent when she is older because he inspired her!

Year 6 Data Art Project
6M had the best day at Liverpool ACC creating artwork linked to data collected about the lives of those living in Merseyside.
Together we created a large, walkable labyrinth, using colours, artwork and 3D objects that represent well-being data from the Liverpool City Region.
The children thoroughly enjoyed the event and represented our school beautifully.
”I really enjoyed being responsible for an area and working together as a team.” D
Other children enjoyed the chance to be creative and find peace through art.
Our fabulous artist Elaine, commented on how impressed she was with the children’s enthusiasm, commitment and dedication. She particularly noted that 6M were inspiring.
The festival of Data is a free event, that is running this weekend, if you would like to attend with your family and see all of our hard work.
