Today Davy class along, with Boscawen class, made dens in the environmental area to raise money for Save the Children. They also made to make a flag to identify their shelter. The final test was whether or not their den would withstand a rain shower.

All the classs made brilliant dens and not many got wet!

Davy class celebrated the end of their WW2 topic by having their very own VE party. The children dressed in period costume, played beetle, musical chairs and ate the ration recipes that they have made at home ( we especially enjoyed Guy’s potato cakes!) Jake loved the food so much, he took the left over cakes for his parents to enjoy.

Emily (dressed as Winston Churchill) was the class beetle champion and Luc enjoyed jiving with Miss Palfreyman.

After a busy week, Davy class are getting ready for camp on Monday.

After receiving 50 diamond tickets, Davy class were eligible to a lesson of their choice. Ruby suggested a design and technology lesson and Martha suggested that we could make chairs. In order to complete the task, the children separated into small groups and were allowed 20 newspapers and 1 roll of masking tape.

Mr Lara was invited to test the chairs and he scored them on appearance,  comfort and stability. The “Electric Symmetric” chair won with 25 out of a possible 30 marks. This chair was designed and made by Jesse, Stanley, Tyler, Alfie and Guy who shared a small prize.

We carried out a fair test to find out which material was the most absorbent.
