Together as one

Year 5 used ICT and photos of the class to create these pictures. It represents the fact that we are all different but come together as a class and as a school community.

Peace day - refugees

Today for Peace Day Year 5 have been studying refugees.  We built refugee tents to highlight the number of refugees fleeing war and persecution. Refugees are forced to leave their homes behind and travel to a new country, often to set up home at a refugee camp with tents. 

Designing & making communities of the future

Year 5 have been designing & making towns/communities of the future. The children produced some fantastic designs!

Bristol/community Questionnaire

For homework Year 5 interviewed family and friends to find out more about Bristol and our community. We collected our results and then represented it in bar and pie charts.

Modern day photos of Fishponds placed onto an old map

Year 5 have been looking at how Fishponds has changed over time. Using ICT, the children have taken photographs of places in Fishponds today and then placed them on to an old map. As well as ICT skills the task required them to carefully study maps in order to put the photos in the correct places. Can you spot our school?

Fishponds now and then

Today Year 5 used ICT to place old photos of Fishponds into modern day ones. The children have carefully matched up photos to create these stunning images for their 'Community' topic.

Comparing maps of our local community

Today Year 5 have been comparing maps of Bristol over time as part of their 'Community' topic. The children looked at maps of this area from the past through to the present (over 200 years) and saw how dramatically things had changed. They took on the very difficult task of transferring data from the newer maps onto the map from 1817 to show where the changes had been.
