Primary English Day

Abram Bryn Gates' Year 5 visit Cansfield

Pupils from Abram Bryn Gates visited Cansfield today to take part in an English morning with Mrs. Armstrong and Mrs. Howard-Sinclair.

The year 5 students became detectives for the day, using evidence to inform their conclusion. They assessed a crime scene and interviewed suspects before finally writing who they thought had killed Mr. Finch.

Cansfield staff were really impressed with the behaviour and the attitude to learning of Abram Bryn Gates'  pupils. Well done!

Here are some photos from our morning...
