In Science, the children have been learning about adaptation. The children used different items that represented different bird beaks and used them to collect food. Working in teams, they did a relay race to see which beak was best for which food type. Ask your child what they learnt from the activity and the impact it might have on the bird species.
In RE, Year 6 have been looking at justice. Based on Martin Luther King Jr’s famous “I have a dream” speech, the children responded to this with the “dream” they have. This is Magda’s response.
