School Journey 2017

1/11/2017

 
From the 27th to the 29th of September year 6 went to the Margret McMillan house in Kent to spend some time outdoors and enjoy the fresh air and wild life. When we arrived at Margaret McMillan house, we had the opportunity to participate in an amazing range of activities.  These included high ropes, archery, zip lining, orienteering, a night walk, survival challenges and a party in the barn.

The survival challenge, which was my favourite, was especially fun because we made small fires, bread and a shelter as though we were in the wild. In the orienteering activity, which I also enjoyed, we used a map to find letters around the site and used the letters we found to unscramble a sentence. 

Our time at Margaret McMillan house was very different to our daily lives in the city of London.  Everyone had such a great time.  We had an awesome party on the last night with lots of food and some dancing. I hope the next year six and the following have loads of fun, because we certainly did!

Victorian artwork

1/11/2017

 
 
Year six have been creating some brilliant artwork with the talented Julia, who is an artist-in-residence here at Blue Gate Fields Junior. The theme of this artwork was ‘Victorians in The Countryside.’ We paid attention to the expression on the faces of the models as we drew them, and tried to capture the right perspective using yellow pastel and black charcoal for the drawing.  At first, we drew in a local park which has an old Victorian school behind it.  We tried to incorporate the building into our drawing.  After that, we drew in the girls’ meadow here at BGF because we decided that with many plants and trees, it has a similar setting to a Victorian countryside.
