Ancient Egypt

On Wednesday 14th June Year 6 took part in an Ancient Egyptian drama day run by 'One Day Creative'. The children worked incredibly hard throughout the day and we were so impressed with what they did that they put on an impromptu performance for some of Key Stage 2.

Below are some photos but please also see the 'Highfield Hall Media' section under 'Children' for selected video highlights!

First Aid Training

On Monday 19th June Year 6 received some basic first aid training from the British Red Cross. We learnt what to do if someone was: choking, unresponsive or having a seizure. We also learnt how to treat a burn, head injury or wound.

Smoking workshop

During Healthy Living Week Year 6 took part in a Smoking Awareness workshop. They learnt about the chemicals inside a cigarette and the harmful effects of smoking on the body. The children also took part in an activity about peer pressure where they had to persuade a peer to take a sweet from them. The workshop finished with an interactive quiz.

The Egyptian Lego challenge

The children were set the task of building Zoser's Step Pyramid out of Lego. The challenge was to construct the pyramid with 6 levels using the least amount of bricks possible. One team took it further and built the biggest step pyramid they could!
