5S visit Kentwell

On Wednesday 19th June Year 5 spent a wonderful day at Kentwell Tudor House.

We took part in a Tudor re-enactment dressed as Tudor peasants and learnt how Tudors lived.

 

We were all very excited as we passed through the time tunnel and entered Tudor times!

 

 

We are now writing a recount of our day!

 

Our visit to the Tate Gallery!

Year 5 went on a trip yesterday to the Tate Modern and Globe theatre.

 

The topic for the whole school, this summer, is 'What lies Beneath'. 
We have been discussing the 150th anniversary of the London underground system so it was good to travel by underground to St. Pauls. Then we went across the Millennium Bridge and visited the Tate Modern.

 

  The children sketched sculptures there. After lunch we walked along the Thames and sat down to sketch the Globe theatre. The weather was fabulous and the South Bank was crowded. Some passers by commented on the children's drawings - how good they were!

       

Art Week - William Morris Design

Class 5S have been working with an artist this week. We have been looking at William Morris designs and using our environmental area to draw designs for 2 large wall hangings. Some children are using the designs to make fabric leaves and flowers which will be attached to the hangings!

Here are a few photos of us in action!....
