In DT Year 6 have been learning about food and nutrition. Today 6P have been cooking some muffins and soda bread. They measured, mixed and baked the ingredients, then they tasted their wares. Here we have some of the children during the session.👩🏿‍🍳👨🏻‍🍳

Today our Year 6's shared their amazing maths games they have made with Year 5 children. These were all about BIDMAS and it was a chance for the Year 6's to share their knowledge with Year 5's before they move in to Year 6 next year. What a great session!
