Year 5

Celebrating

Eid Al-Fitr

Year 5 celebrated the Islam Festival of Eid and took part in a number of activities organised by Miss Ellis. The girls enjoyed baking traditional Eid cookies, creating mehndi hand art, designing prayer mats and practised Arabic calligraphy.

Hampton Court & Henry VIII

Year 5 loved learning about Henry and his wives and taking a trip to his royal home at Hampton Court Palace.

Women in History

In Humanities, the girls have studied the Suffragettes and the Tudors. Studying the Suffragettes at an all girls school led to some detailed, well-researched pieces of work and the girls’ enthusiasm for celebrating women in history sparked an International Women’s Day display.
