Stiperstones have had a busy first few weeks back.
Firstly, we’ve had three Stiperstones Superstars 🌟

Our unit of study this term is ‘light’. Year 5 and 6 have been exploring what a light source is, different forms of light sources and proving that light travels in straight lines.

In PSHE the children have been learning about healthy lifestyles. On Thursday, the children discussed the effects and risks of unhealthy diet choices.
PE
Some of the year 6’s in Stiperstones have started their swimming lessons this week, they have a 10 week block of lessons, working on achieving their 25m badges.
