Spanish Food
This half term, we have been learning how to order different foods and drinks in a Spanish cafe. To consolidate this, we set up our own 'cafes' in class where the children were able to order a range of foods and beverages. Options included calamari, chorizo, Manchego cheese, tortilla and prawns!

History - Crime and Punishment

To support our topic, Crime and Punishment, Year 5 visited the Police Museum to learn about what life was like for criminals in the Victorian era. We were given a tour of the museum, tried on some police outfits from different periods and even got to experience a real-life prison. Check out our photos!

Place of Welcome

5LB were privileged to be invited to St. Martin's church to sing at their Place of Worship event. We sang three songs: Let it Snow, Sing Up, It's Christmas and Love Shone Down. All the children received a huge round of applause and were complimented on how beautifully they sung, and how brilliantly they represented Greenside.
