Morning,
Did you hear about the claustrophobic astronaut?
He just needed a little space.
Reading and Exercise: the usual 30 minutes please. All the children here in school are reading from 9:30 until 10 and we are outside for a minimum of 30 minutes each day. We still haven't mastered football with social distancing, but we are in discussion...
History: Vikings. I've always been interested in this subject and, in the last few years, Mr Hobson has got me into the Amazon Prime show, Vikings, which I watch with Paddy. The history is incredible - especially the story of Ragnar Lothbrok.

Have a good day!

I hope everyone at home is safe and well.
For those of you trying to get hold of me, the email address is still class6@netherthongprimary.co.uk but please bear with me, as I'm back in class each day now and my non-contact time is each Friday, during the afternoon. If I don't get back you before, that's when I'll be sat planning the following week and responding to correspondence.
If there is something that requires more immediate attention, please ring the office here and they will get a message to me.
Thanks, as always, for your continued support.
Stay safe,
Mr C
End of the week!

Morning all,
Just to add to Miss H's baking/cooking (not sure which is which?), please make sure you continue to read and do exercise - EVEN in this horrific weather!
Here is proof that we have some Y6 people in school:
Have a lovely (WET) weekend!

Hello, Miss H here! I am gutted that we won't be making this DT topic together but I thought I would still give you some ideas to allow you to try different foods from around the world! This week, why not try Chinese food?
Spring rolls are filled, rolled appetisers or Dim Sum found in East Asian and South East Asian cuisine. The name is a literal translation of the Chinese chūn juǎn (春卷 'spring roll'). The kind of wrapper, fillings, and cooking technique used, as well as the name, vary considerably within this large area, depending on the region's culture.
Remember when cooking to use techniques:
The Bridge
The Claw
Peeling - Remember to always peel away from yourself!
Here is a recipe for Spring Rolls for you to try at home:
Let us know how you get on, good luck!

Bison.
