Icebergs Ahead!

Year 5 Titanic Day

At the end of last term Year 5 celebrated Titanic Day. It was a wonderful commemoration which marked the end of a fabulous unit of work investigating the part that Southampton played in the history of the Titanic, and how it was affected by the disaster that occured.

All the children came dressed ready to board the ship. They had chosen whether to be passengers (1st, 2nd or 3rd class) or workers. After a quick fashion show children recorded all relevant details onto their passports and boarding passes.

In the afternoon all children took their documents down to passport control and boarded the Titanic to the melodic sound of the 'orchestra'. The day culminated in High Tea where the children sat down to a delicious feast of scones, jam and cream. These had been made by the children in a Let's Get Cooking session the previous day. They were then taught an Irish jig by our resident school expert Hannah.



Year 5 would like to thank all the Year 6 muscians and passport control officers who helped make it such a special experience.
