Spring Term - Our book: 'Itch' By Simon Mayo
Itchingham Lofte - known as Itch - is 14, and loves science - especially chemistry. He is also an element-hunter: he has decided to collect all the elements in the periodic table.
One day, Itch makes a discovery. A new element, never seen before. At first, no one believes him - but soon, someone hears about the strange new rock and wants it for himself. Itch is in serious danger.
- What do YOU think will happen to Itch?
- Why is the rock valuable?
- Where might he store it?
- When will he be free again?
- Why do you enjoy the book?

Coding fun in Year 5/6
Each week of this year so far, we have completed various coding tasks on code.org. We have been learning to write simple code, debug code and use higher level instructions (such as a 'repeat' function') to make things happen on our screens (such as games and small animations).
If you want to practice at home head to:
