Congratulations 6L!
You were simply sensational this morning!
Here is the video we made about mummifying fish in class. Don’t forget to tell your families and friends about the fishy goings on this week!
There’s never a dull moment in Year 6 and today wasn’t any different. After working hard all term, we enjoyed an outing to Forest Hill School to meet the world famous writer Andy Briggs.
Andy told us about his job as a writer and the exciting adventures he has had all over the world to research material for his stories. Remember the elephant fleas? a gorilla’s scent? and the fact that bananas aren’t really bananas?!? Life as a writer definitely sounds far more exciting than we had ever imagined!
After talking about his adventures, Andy told us how he uses his ideas to create stories. He has recently modernised the Tarzan series and his collection of books based on an inventory of gadgets sounds intriguing.
Some of us ordered a signed copy of his latest book ‘Drone Racer’. We can’t wait to read it and are looking forward to getting some Andy Briggs books for our book corner.
Here are some photographs from our fantastic day at the museum.
Tell me something you saw or discovered that you think will stay with you forever?

Thanks, Miss Lynch 🙂
