Hawks Visit to Sheldon School - April 2008

Kington St Michael’s top class (Hawks), went to visit the secondary school of Sheldon. In our visit we joined in with lots of interesting lessons such as D.T and many more... Firstly, we participated in a science lesson doing various experiments; these include seeing what would happen if you placed a burning cracker under a tube of water with a thermometer.. What would? In our D.T lesson we were analysing different crisps such as Cheese and Burgundy, extra mature cheddar and caramelised onions! Unfortunately one of the crisps tasted like old feet (YUK!) however we still had to eat them…

In literacy we were writing about our favourite sweet, well if we had one! Some people had not been to a sweet shop so; they didn’t have a favourite. The majority of the class wrote theirs as a poem. After all of that, Hawks were starting to get really hungry however, it was lunchtime!
Lunch was delicious, (just as well really!)

The lesson after lunch was P.E, when we were doing our warm up we got into a large circle and tried to touch our toes with our left and right hands. Fortunately we were improving our basketball skills learning moves like the tornado and many more. Unfortunately, the next lesson was our last lesson; music. We had the same teacher as we had last year (when we learned the pig song) but we learned a different song this year: which is African for “come together.” We did a performance (recorded on a tape) with all of the parts, older men/women, farmers and finally wood-cutters.

Overall we had a great day furthermore we were expecting two mini-buses but instead we got a coach! I hope you enjoy all the pictures too!
