​Tanni Grey Thompson is one of  Britain's most successful Paralympians. She was born in Cardiff and growing up she was determined to find out for herself what she could and could not do. After trying a range of sports Tanni realised at age 13 that Wheelchair Racing was her sport of choice and at 17 she became part of the British Wheelchair Racing Squad.
 
In Tanni’s first Paralympics in 1988 she won a Bronze medal in the 400m. Her total Paralympic Medal tally is 11 Gold, 4 Silvers and 1 Bronze and added to that 5 Gold, 4 Silver and 3 Bronze medals at World Championships. Over her career, Tanni broke 30 world records on the track. Since retiring from sport Tanni has received numerous awards in recognition of her achievements.
Over the next 2 weeks our school will be celebrating the Olympics. Each Class/Year Group has chosen a different country to investigate and explore. We have received a message of support from Baroness Tanni Grey.

This week we tested out the catapults we made recently. We were investigating which missile would travel the furthest when we were trying to destroy the Roman Forts!
We tried Maltesers, bonbons and Pinball. 
We were shocked when Maltesers won!

Another week has flown by!

So this week has been super busy again! We have been writing a letter to Perilus' Dad to persuade him to let him become a charioteer, we have studied how to write effective instructions and begun reading our new class reader 'Code Name Bananas' by David Walliams.
In Maths we have learned about factors, multiples and prime numbers. We have also been lucky to have a laptop each this week so have been competing against our peers in J2Blast on Hwb- helping us to learn our Times tables.
In our topic work, we have been learning about the Roman Army Uniform and how difficult it must have been to fight in all of that!
We are looking forward to trying out our catapults next week to see how far our missiles will travel.

BIG WELL DONE to Ashley Williams for his merit award this week for showing a great attitude to his learning!

Have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend!
