Hi,
We have had a lovely week and end to a busy half term in Ash Tree.
On Monday evening, myself and Mr Spence took a group of Y5's from both Ash and Oak to St Mary's Menston to participate in a netball come and try event. We were so impressed with how quickly the children developed their skills as they had played very little netball beforehand! They finished the event by playing some competitive matches against other schools and even won one of their games so a big well done to all children who took part in this event. We are looking forward to having you on the Y6 netball team from September!
On Tuesday, UKS2 received a visit from theatre company "Tempest Fugit" and watched/participated in the retelling of the Ancient Greek myth, "Perseus and Medusa". After the half term, we will be writing our own versions of this myth.
Finally, we enjoyed getting into the jubilee spirit by making paper chains, designing bunting, learning all about the Royal family tree and of course dressing in red, white and blue on Friday!
I hope you all have a wonderful half term and enjoy the extra bank holiday with your families and friends! See you in a week!
Miss Bairstow :)

Hi,
It has been an incredibly busy week for the whole of UKS2 with several sporting events taking place. Children in Ash Tree class represented school at a football tournament in York, a triathlon at John Smeaton and a "This Girl Can" event at Leeds Beckett University. It has been lovely to hear such positive feedback from the members of staff who attended these events about the children's enthusiasm and behaviour.
Back in the classroom, we have been writing persuasive leaflets with Year 6 writing about Peat Rigg and Year 5 writing about Yeadon Tarn. We are excited to write these up in neat next week and hopefully share some with you here!
Have a lovely weekend!

Hi,
I would like to start this week by saying a massive well done to all of our Y6's for completing their SATs tests this week! They have worked so hard and should be incredibly proud of themselves as we are very proud of them.
Year 5 have been completing lots of topic and science based work this week and also deserve a big well done for adjusting to a new routine for most of the week whilst Year 6 have been busy!
We hope you all have a well-deserved rest this weekend!
