Dragonology

Eagle Owls have been learning and practising pop-ups in DT, and writing Dragonology texts in English ready to compile our class Dragonology book.  Please enjoy our sketchbook work, instructions and our finished book in the photos below.

Whitlingham Adventure Canoeing

Eagle Owls were lucky enough to have their class end of year trip out canoeing at Whitlingham Country Park. The day was not perhaps as sunny as we would have liked – but the children still thoroughly enjoyed splashing each other and paddling around together. It was a great day out!

 

 

 

 

 

West Runton Field Trip

Eagle Owls went on a joint Science/Geography field trip to observe coastal erosion and living things. We were planning to rock pool and observe the life that lives under the waves as well as walk along the cliff front and see evidence of erosion. Unfortunately the tide was against us and we were unable to see very much in the rock pools before the tide came in, but there were plenty of examples of coastal erosion along the beach. We were able to have a full and enjoyable trip.

 

Girls Football Festival UEA 2021

 Year 5 and 6

The Year 5 and 6 girls were able to go out to the first sporting event in 18 months, to participate in a football festival targeting girls football skills. The FA a (supported by Barclays) are raising the profile of girls football and so we should see lots more events like this next year! They had a lovely day, it was run by high school girls from CAN and Jane Austin College which made the whole day very well represented. Well done girls!

 

Year 6 Sailing at Filby

Norfolk Schools’ Sailing Association

Year 6 were able to go to Filby and have a taster session for sailing on the water with Sue and Jeremy. They sailed on Optimist beginners boats and had a brilliant time. We were lucky with the weather as it was a blue sky sunny day and Year 6 had lots of fun!
