Year 5 have been busy preparing for St Basils's Market Place. We have taken our budget of £20 and spent it on beads and string, cardboard holders, a jar and sweets. This has spent out £20 and now we hope to generate more money to make a profit. Our estimated profits varied between £70-£110!
'I think that if the whole class of 30 children make 4 phone charms each and we sell them for £1 each, then we should generate £120 - £20 that we have spent. Which is £100 profit. I think that we should charge 50p for a go of 'Tin Can Alley' and for every 20 children that play, we will make an extra £10 profit on top. We also have a 'Guess the total amount of sweets in the jar' competition which is 50p a go too. I can't wait to see how much money our class generate!' Lewis

What a fantastic day we had! Today we all got to go on a bus to Chester Zoo. We were so excited as we went over the bridge! We could see for miles. The children sang 'The Wheels on the Bus' as we drove to the zoo.
Once we got there, we couldn't wait to see some animals. We were so lucky to see a lion up close! We had a fantastic day and got to see lots of animals. Some were hidden and we had to look very carefully to see them.
We had an amazing day and our feet were very tired!
