Welcome to the final
term as an Osprey! 🦅✨

Term 6 is always a whirlwind of excitement, and this year is no exception! We have so many fun events and brilliant learning adventures lined up. We kick off the term with an adrenaline-pumping trip to Rumble, and we’re also looking forward to our annual Athletics Festival - and that’s just the start! Fingers crossed the sun keeps shining for all our outdoor fun. ☀️

There’s a small but exciting change this term: the Ospreys will be taught by me, Mrs Burgess! I’m so excited for a fun-filled term ahead packed with laughter, learning, and unforgettable moments.

In Geography, we’re heading beyond Europe to explore Asia! Our big question is: What is life like in India? We’ll compare life in India to life here in the UK, dive into the wonders of the River Ganges, and discover many fascinating human and physical features along the way. 🌏

In Science, the Ospreys will become real-life investigators in our States of Matter unit. We’ll group materials into solids, liquids, and gases, watch them change state when heated or cooled, and measure exactly when these magical transformations happen. 🔬
 

In Art, we’ll be inspired by the incredible sculptors Barbara Hepworth and Augusta Savage. Using what we learned during our Burghley House workshop last term, we’ll create our very own 3D sculptures - crafted from wire and Modroc and inspired by nature. 🎨

In English, we’ll explore The Lost Happy Endings book by Carol Ann Duffy, writing our own twisted narratives and persuasive letters. We also have a very special class read this term: Cloud Busting by Malorie Blackman, a novel written in verse. 📚

In Maths, the Ospreys will continue their time adventures, mastering converting units of time and reading both 12-hour and 24-hour clocks. We’ll also tackle data handling, presenting information with pictograms, bar charts, and line graphs, before moving on to geometry, exploring angles, quadrilaterals, and symmetry. ➗📊

In French, Mrs Honorez will guide us through fun lessons on sports and hobbies, and we’ll celebrate French Day with all the usual flair! 

In PE, we’re continuing our athletics lessons in preparation for the Corby Athletics Trip, and we’ll also practice our striking and fielding skills, with a focus on rounders. 🏃‍♂️🥎 PE days will be confirmed very soon.

Phew! Term 6 is going to be great. Let’s make it the most memorable final term yet for the Ospreys! 🎉
