Here’s a snippet of one of the songs we have been learning during our steel pans lessons. #dcpsdolphin #dcpsmusic
Year 5 Dolphins visited Churchill yesterday to learn about remembrance. We used wool and a felting needle to create our own felt poppies. They turned out pretty great! #dcpsdolphin #dcpsdt
It is a hive of activity currently in Year 5! The children are working in teams of six in order to design and make a Tudor House. They have learnt lots of new skills: using a saw, sanding, making corners to hold it together, cutting, measuring and teamwork. Everyone is working hard, it is lovely to watch!

Today, Year 5 had their first Yoga lessons. Not only did I see a few downward dogs, there was also a few deer, lions, cats, whales and a whole host of other creatures on display!! The children enjoyed it and are looking forward to learning more over the next 8 weeks. Mrs Hammill #dcpswhales #dcpsdolphins #dcpspe
On Friday, Year 5 were solving some tricky place value problems in our Maths lessons, in order to help the astronaut be ready for his mission. Mrs Hammill. #dcpswhales #dcpsdolphins #dcpsmaths
Last week, Year 5 had a great time at the Bring it on 2018 Big Bang STEM festival at the Stadium of Light. They enjoyed all the activities from the different engineering types. I think we may even have a few budding engineers in the making! Mrs Hammill #dcpswhales #dcpsdolphins #dcpsstem
Just a reminder that now swimming is over, please can all Year 5 have their PE kit in school every Tuesday and Friday, starting from tomorrow. Thanks. #dcpswhales #dcpsdolphins
