  • Photography in Year 6

    Published 14/10/23, by Andy Mari

    In Art, Year 6 have been learning, as part of their photography unit, how to re-create famous paintings. They had to think very carefully about the composition of their picture and how they can use different objects around the classroom as props replicating items in the paintings. 

    We have also edited photos which we have taken. We studied on using macrophotography and edited our images carefully, using inspiration from an artist called Edward Weston. Lastly, we have been trying really hard to improve our sketchbook skills. We are so proud of the outcomes. At Roebuck, we are photographers.

  • Year 6 Osmington Bay

    Published 03/10/23, by Andy Mari
    On Monday we left school at quarter to 12 and got on the coach to Osmington Bay. Once we got there, we met our leaders for the week, and then they showed us to our rooms. Once we all settled in, we went to the sandpit for about 10 minutes before dinner. After we had dinner, we went back to the rooms for a while and then started our evening activities. After that, we all went to our rooms and got ready for the night. The next day we all met at the meeting point and started our activities. Some of the activities we did were: giant swing, rock climbing, abseiling, sensory trail, aeroball, trapeze,vertical challenge and rifle shooting. My favourite was definitely the giant swing because it shocked me because he told us it was a safety rope, and it was actually the rope that let us down. 
    Overall, we had such a great time with lots of adventure and laughter!
