Year 5 celebrating World Happiness Day 2025 ☀️💛

In Maths in Year 5, we have been learning about different types of angles. Yesterday we used the Semaphore flag alphabet system to create our names and signal messages to each other, whilst identifying the types of angles we have in our name. Da iawn pawb 😃👏🏼

Yesterday Year 5 celebrated and learnt about the Jewish New Year festival, Rosh Hashanah. They tasted apples with honey as part of this. The apple represents a new start and the honey represents welcoming a sweet beginning. Diolch Mrs McCarthy 🍎 🍯

Year 5 have been investigating different types of Angles. We began by working in pairs playing Robotic Angles, creating angles with our arms. Gwaith da pawb 👏🏼😊
