Weekly Update - 23.5.25
Posted: May 23, 2025 by: Miss Bairstow (d.bairstow) on: Ash Tree Class Blog
Hello!
Ash Tree class have been busy this week completing their DT project "Automata Animals". Our design brief was to create a collection of moving animal models to captivate people's interest and raise awareness of endangered rainforest animals. The children worked in pairs throughout our two DT build days and demonstrated amazing teamwork during this challenging project!
You can see a full gallery of our finished products here: https://www.ruffordparkprimary.org.uk/classes/year5-6ash/automata-animals-2025-ash-tree
This morning we also took part in an orienteering session and learnt lots about mapwork and had to utilise our teamwork skills again! Some children also went to a Triathalon event today with Mr Spence and Mrs Senior.
This has been a very short but very VERY busy half term... we can't believe when we come back we will be entering our final half term of the year!
Have a great break and see you soon :)
