Year 5 had the most wonderful time at the Centre for Life, Newcastle. They participated in a range of activities such as: launching their own rockets, discovering the volume of water a space nappy could hold and learning to work robotic arms similar to those used on the International Space Station.

Year 5 have been enjoying their French lessons from one of DCBC’s French teachers: Mr James. They have been learning conversational French, the planets and how to describe them. We are having a fantastic time!

Year 5 made motorised, pulley-driven vehicles as their Design and Technology topic this term. We had a brilliant time making them and racing them!
