End Of Year Reflections 2021 (Leavers Edition)

Hi guys, this is my last blog post for this year. I am writing this post on an old Chromebook. Honestly this was probably my favourite year out of the 6 & 1/2 years I have been at this school. This year at South Hornby School we went to a great camp called Woodend Camp. I personally found this camp more fun and interesting than the one we visited last year. 


Last year I wrote a post similar to this one. But last year we got to see the Year 6 T-ball game and did Top-Team. This year today the T-ball game and last swimming session was canceled, yesterday Top-Team was canceled as well. This year in August we went back into lock-down, I didn't think that we would make it back for a few months but surprisingly we made it back the next month. I'm glad we managed to do the leavers assembly after we had lock-down. I also enjoyed leavers dinner which we had 3 days ago. It was fun to hang out and eat with all the people leaving and the teachers (not all of the teachers are leaving). Next year if you see this blog my new school will either be reusing it or it won't have live stuff. Hope you have a great Christmas & goodbye for 2021!!

Bird Feeders! - Inquiry

This week for Inquiry we made bird feeders. This was fun because we got to spread pine cones with peanut butter and roll it in bird seeds! I didn't find this very hard because all we had to really do was spread a pine cone with peanut butter in between each seed thing. Then we had to roll it through a plate/bowl/tray filled with wild bird seed to make the birds want to eat it. Then we attached it to a piece of string (or you can do it at the start) and hung it on a tree!

How To Plant A Tree D.L.O - Inquiry

Today for Inquiry we made a D.L.O on how to plant a tree. We got to plant trees 1 or 2 weeks ago so making this D.L.O was rather easy. I found it fun to make because it was about something I knew how to do. The steps go in this order. 

  1. Scrape the bark
  2. Cut the weed mat
  3. Dig a hole with a trowel
  4. Tip Plant Out of pot
  5. Take plant out of pot
  6. Put plant in hole
  7. Hold Plant In Place and put dirt back
  8. Push dirt firmly
  9. Put bark around the plant
  10. Water the plant
