Trips and activities

Arundel

Year 5 have a range of exciting trips and activities throughout the year. These are in addition to over 60 clubs and activities that are offered throughout the year during lunch and after school times. Many year 5 pupils also have music lessons with one or more of the 27 visiting music teachers and more and more of us are now taking up drama lessons too. There really is never a dull moment.

Michaelmas Term

As part of our English studies we have a workshop with Shakespeare 4 Kids. This is a great opportunity to continue our work on plays and drama and we love going to see the play after having studied some of the story and characters. We also have a range of visits from authors (recently Morris Gleitzman) and others. This term also has mad hair day - a fun dressing up day to raise money.

Camping

Lent Term

This term sees us visiting the Natural History museum to tie in with our Geography topic on volcanoes and earthquakes. We also have fun at the IMAX.

Summer Term

This term is very busy and exciting with a trip to the beach to study coastal processes (and enjoy ice creams), a fantastic overnight camping trip with many outdoor and adventure activities, a visit to Arundel castle and the year 5 and 6 production.
