What does the head teacher think
about leaving and much more?
Mrs Seaborne is leaving after six years
of being head teacher, what a sad
event and will she ever come back to
our school? Find out!
QUESTIONS… How are you feeling about leaving our
school?
“A bit wobbly, I’m trying not to think
about it.”
Did you like being at Gorseland
school and why?
“I’ve loved being here because all the
people are lovely.”
Are going to get another job? If you
are, what would it be?
“I am going to get another job I am
going to work with trainee teachers.”
If you were a chocolate bar, which
one would you be and why?
I would be a snickers bar because it’s
got a bit of everything.”
If you were an animal which one
would you be and why?
A cat because they are their own boss
and they always land on their feet.”
The lucky winner of the question
contest is Mrs Prout. Here is her
question…
What is your favourite pop band
from the 1970’s?
“I think Dire Striates.”
Jack and Connor, 6B
New man at the top
Mrs Seaborne is leaving Gorseland at
Christmas time, but who shall get the job
of Head teacher?
When Mrs Seaborne resigned from
Gorseland, this opened up the job for
head teacher. Already the school had
gone through one set of interviews but
the governors decided there was no one
suitable for the job. This shows how hard
it is to get the job. `
Two people were interviewed on the 22nd
and the 23rd of October by the school
governors and the school councillors from
Years Five and Six. Leonie, a Year Six
school councillor said she was happy to
be allowed to go to the head teacher
interviews.
Mr Jackson, a former deputy head at
Gorseland, visited the primary school on
the day of the interview. This caused
some suspicion that he may have been
interviewed to be the head.
The next day, at lunch time, an email was
sent out telling the parents who the new
head teacher was. It was Mr Jackson!

Mrs Wallace’s and Bowskill’s Class
The main theme for Mrs Wallace’s and Bowskill’s class is to learn
Makaton signing. They can sing or talk and sign at the same time,
watching Mr Tumble helps them with this. Some of the children can
talk but others need help from their teachers to communicate. So
learning Makaton signing is a great opportunity for them.
Aaron, an eight-year-old boy in Mrs Wallace’s and Bowskill’s class,
drew this picture of Mr Tumble’s spotty bag and what he would like
to put in it. He drew a seahorse, an elephant, a snake and a football.
Their teachers and teaching assistants are Mrs Wallace, Mrs
Bowskill, Mrs Grey, Faye, Mrs Chesterfield and Mrs Spalding.
Every 2 weeks they start a new topic. They had a party for
someone’s birthday not long ago and they had cake, party food and
played games. They also do gym trail. It helps them to follow
instructions and also to get themselves dressed and undressed.

Mrs Cracknell’s Class Friendship Our class has been learning about friendship and what makes a good friend. We read a story called ‘Frog and the Stranger’. It is all about friendship. The characters are Frog, Rat, Duck, Hare and Pig. Rat is very kind and hard working. Duck is mean to Rat. Pig is mean and cruel. Hare is very clever. Frog is caring and kind. The story teaches us that if someone is different to us we can still like them and be friends with them. I really enjoyed listening to the story because it had a happy ending. By Charlotte- 3B
Learning a new language In Year 3 we have started to learn French with Mrs.Cook. So far we have learnt greetings and feelings and numbers. We have just started to learn colours. At the beginning of term we learnt how to greet people and ask how they are feeling. I learnt how to say ‘Hello, how are you?’ and respond and also to ask someone their name. We then started to learn lots of things to do with numbers including matching written words with their digits and word searches. We also made a French hopscotch game and did some sums in French too. Some French numbers are….. Un, Deux, Trois, Quatre and so on. I was a bit worried about composing a song with the colours in, but when we actually did it I was quite proud of it. By Matan- 3B.
Our Class Trip To Ipswich Museum Our topics in class were Rocks and Teeth, so we went to Ipswich Museum on Wednesday 24th October to find out more……… Animals First we looked at animals. Lots of people liked the huge, Woolly Mammoth. I wondered how they got the Mammoth inside the museum? Most people thought
The Gorseland Times November 2012
the Red Panda was cute and also the Lion Cub. The Giraffe was so tall with its long neck. Of course all the animals had been stuffed and were not real! Bones and Teeth Next we saw some bones and teeth. We found the animals Teeth very interesting because they were such different sizes. My group and I spotted some long snake bones in a glass cabinet. We also found some sharp sharks teeth. Ancient Egyptians Then we went to the Egyptian section where we saw lots of mummies. They were wrapped in linen cloth, which is a type of fabric. There were thin and thick bones in glass coffins too. Rocks Finally we looked at some rocks. We chose our favourite rock and drew it. My favourite rock was a large mustard coloured rock with a flower-like design on top. It looked like a sea-shell to me! Birds We all saw lots of types of birds. The most interesting one was The Golden Eagle. It is on e of the best known birds of prey. It has disappeared from many of the more heavily populated areas. By Madhu- 3B.
Hockey Coaching
We have been taught hockey by our sports coach Mr.Fenn and its been good fun. We have plastic hockey sticks and little tennis balls and also quite tiny goals, so its really hard to score! I like being in goal but I worry when the ball comes near to me too fast, especially if it is a great player shooting it. You have to keep the stick below your waist and also keep the ball quite low so it doesn’t hit your body. If you are right-handed the left hand goes in the middle and you place your right hand over the top. It’s really good fun having Mr. Fenn teaching us as he is very kind to us. By John and Henry, 3B.

GOODBYE YEAR 5!
5A and 5B open the
door to Year 6
Back in the summer, we
found fun in our new
classrooms with our new Year
6 teachers; Mr Sampson and
Miss Downey.
Activities for Miss Downey’s
class included a memory game
from the holidays; guess the
false fact and construction
challenge involving spaghetti
and marshmallows! Meanwhile,
Mr Sampson’s class played
several games, including ‘Don’t
say it!’.
We were relieved to find that
we had great fun with Miss
Downey and Mr Sampson, as
some of us weren’t sure what to
expect. Alice Kaplan (a pupil in
Miss Downey’s class) said:
“I had great fun playing all the
games. My favourite part was
making the constructions with
marshmallows. “
Everyone in Miss Downey’s class
made some amazing coats of
arms as well. We drew pictures
to show more about us and our
favourite things. We then added
mottos onto them for us to
remember throughout Year 6.
Our mottos include: Mind over
matter; passion and
determination; Don’t give up, go
for gold and Keep calm and stay
determined.
The fun continues still in Year 6.
Everyone enjoys the Heroes
topic, all of the slightly harder
subjects and the wonderful new
classrooms and teachers.

Year 6’s Kesgrave High School visit.
On Monday the 8th of October 2012 the year 6’s of Gorseland Primary
School paid a visit to Kesgrave High School to take in what it would be like
there.
The Maths Lesson.
Class 6A was introduced to a teacher called Mr Rowley, who gave them a
taste of what a year 7 maths lesson would be like in Kesgrave High
School, whilst Class 6B were taught by Mr Adams. 6A did coding and de-
coding using braille, as well as solving word problems using Carroll
diagrams.
“I thought the braille was awesome but challenging.” -Rahul 6A.
“It was a little unexpected when we found out we were doing braille it was
much easier.” -Charlie 6A.
“The lesson was awesome.” -Eddie 6A.
“I thought the diagrams were easy to understand, but the questions were
challenging.” -Maddy 6A.
The Canteen.
Y6’s had a great time eating snacks from the Canteen. The snacks were a
variety of choices, such as pizza, sausages rolls, bacon butties and potato
wedges. There was also a selection drinks (including fizzy drinks).
The tour of the School.
Some Prefects showed different groups of Y6’s around the High School,
which they thought was like a maze! They saw football pitches, the
library, the cooking and art area and more. It looked like the Y6’s enjoyed
their tour.

HABITS OF MIND
Mrs Seaborne introduced Habits of mind to the school in 2007 and has talked about it in assembles often. We learn about it in class as well and we create pictures and posters about a variety of habits of mind.
A list of some Habits of mind. Using all your senses
Managing your impulsivity
Finding humour
Thinking flexibly
Persisting
Taking responsible risks
Being filled with awe and wonder
Listening to others.
What they mean. Persisting: Means carrying on when it is tough. Taking responsible risks: When you do something and it is risky but you complete it. Thinking flexibly: Thinking smartly. Being filled with awe and wonder: Means something that makes you say WOW. Finding humour: Means making something funny in different situations to help you learn. Managing your impulsivity: put your hand up, don’t kick or punch and remember your manners. You might not know it but you use some of these Habits of Mind every day. If you would like to find out more about Habits of Mind go to the Gorseland website. By Matthew 6A

Heroic Heroes
The whole of year six have been learning
about heroes. They have looked and
researched on lots of different areas and
we are now going to take you on a flight
over the last eight weeks.
Firstly, we made a display on what we
thought was a hero, here is what one of
the children thought .A hero puts others
before themselves by taking every
opportunity to help people who need
help.
Inspirational Heroes
Next we got into five different groups and
made a poster on a particular Olympic
hero which took a long time. Heroes can
be fictional or non-fictional.
Mo Farah is a non-fictional hero unlike
Superman who is a fictional hero.
Cracking Krindlekrax:
Year six are reading a book
called Krindlekrax where a
poor, scruffy boy called Ruskin
Splinter wants to become the
lead role of the hero in the
school play.
“Krindlekrax is a great story because it has
a great lead up.” Melody Harris, 6B.
Fantastic film week:
On the 15th of October we took on the
challenge of film week where we acted
out the films we had written, based on
heroes. It was great fun!
The only way is pup!
Recently, Kim Lewis (Katelyn’s mum) came
into Miss Downey’s class and told a tragic
tale about two adorable puppies she had
rescued from a terrible home. It made the
class feel sad but relieved that they had a
new home to look forward to
It is a very exciting topic and it brings lots
of fun and creative opportunities for
everyone especially for people who act
like Mr Nosey, by being nosey in a good
way.

GUTTERS AND BILLIARD BALLS
On Thursday 28th of September the big hall was occupied by some mysterious
materials that looked like they were more at home on a roof. Y6 attempted the
gutter ball challenge lead by Tim, an engineer from B.T., to improve their co-
operation, interdependency and D.T skills (Design and technology).
The idea was to build a structure in groups that guided your billiard ball in to a
central gutter and in turn to a collecting point at the end. The children had to work
well as a team in small groups, as well as in the whole class. The challenge was for
all of the balls to line up in order, 1-7. This was achieved by each group sending
their ball at the correct time, consecutively along their structure. The time to beat
was 10 seconds which was set by the teachers that completed this task previously.
Sam, 6A said: “It was challenging and brain teasing, but I was devastated when our
structure broke.”
After the builders had constructed their models, the challenge was on to beat the
adults. Tim called everybody to assemble around the centre tube. There were
several test runs, before the main event. Tim started the timer and the groups
started to deliver their balls. Once Tim announced the time, everyone was
determined to improve it.
Finally, on the fifth run, Tim revealed that their
time was an amazing 8 seconds, beating the
adults by 2 seconds! All of 6A agreed it was a
great afternoon.
When 6B had a go, Maddy 6A went with them
and commented “I was working with the other
class, we argued and disagreed, but at the end
we succeeded so it was fun.” Later on Y5
accepted the challenge.

K’nex Challenge
During film week year six had a K’nex challenge while other groups were acting and crewing.
This task was set by Mr Sampson between the 15th and the 19th of October. It lasted half a day
and you could work on your own or you could work with other people. Our task was to make a
fair ground ride or a bridge.
Here is what people had to say about the K’nex challenge:
Zoe said, “You had to have a picture in your mind of what you are going to do”.
Laurie said, “You had to think of how it was going to work and how long it would take to build.”
Thomas said, “I thought it challenging and fun.”
Joe said, “I thought the K’nex challenge was really fun and I enjoyed it very much.”
Henry said, “I think everyone worked really well and Year Six should be proud of themselves.”
Here are some of the pictures of our fairground rides and bridges we made that I think are really
good.

Y5&6 PALS MAKE PLAYTIMES MORE ENJOYABLE
PALs is about making children confident to make new friends and to have fun
with other children in KS1. PALs stands for play activity leader.
PALs is running to help children make friends and have fun with the P.A.LS equipment
bought specially by the school. Children like playing with older pupils, because they find it
fun learning new games and making new friends.
PALs look after the children on the KS1 playground and the top field. The children have an
option to either go on the top field or the KS1 playground. There is a variety of equipment to
use which is held in the bunker for the children. To get access to them they either ask the
dinner lady or the PALs.
Who runs PALs?
Mr Weatherby has been running PALS for around 1 and a half years. Mr Weatherby has
improved P.A.L.S by talking some sense into them because some PALs have been messing
around in front of the little children and it is not suitable for the children because they will
copy our actions.
Reviews:
(Louis) PALs is very fun and it’s a good opportunity to play with the little ones and to play
penalty shoot outs with them.
(Daniel) PALs is a great activity giving us a big opportunity to play with younger children.
(Matt) PALs is a good chance to bond with the little children.
Pupils have an opportunity to do PALs at the age of 9 and above. This means instead y6’s
just doing the PALs, y5’s can do it also so there will be more people for the children to bond
with and make friends.
This is a picture of all the Y6 PALs.

Change4Life
Change4Life is run by a group of Year 6 for some children from Year 4. We
plan activities without the help of an adult, which helps them build confidence
and we help them to work better in a team. The activities are led by a
different Year 6 child each week. We are the only school in our area that has
Change4Life run by Year 6. We have been doing it for 5 weeks and already it
has been a great success.
We have done parachute games, the Hakka, a treasure hunt, blind football
and games and we have also learnt how to Dance Like Diversity.
We usually do it on the top field on Tuesday lunch times, but when it is raining
we still do the club but in the ICT suite.
Freya- “I have enjoyed all the activities so far.”
Edward- “It’s amazing because of the fabulous Year 6s.”
Abigail-“I like it because we get to do lots of activities.”
Caleb-“It’s fun because we got prizes in the treasure hunt.”

Positive playtimes with SSC
Year 6 helpers make playtimes fun and easy for
teachers and pupils
Mr Weatherby and Mrs Chesterfield came up with
this club for year 6 and announced to year 6 on the
1st of October that they had the opportunity to play
with SSC’s at morning break. Ten people are involved
and love the chance to play with such positive
children.
Who is involved? The people who firstly played with the SSC children
were Natasha and Alice (6B). They started playing
with the children on Monday the 8th of October and
said it was fun and interesting to learn their ways.
The other people involved are Bryony, Jasmine,
Sydney (6B), Yasmin, Ellie, Zoe, Tom and Holly (6A).
What is it like? Holly said, “It is very fun. I really enjoy it because it’s
a different experience that we do not usually get to
do.” Everybody thinks they are enjoyable to play with
but what does the teacher herself think?
Mrs.Chesterfield, an SSC teacher, told us “The girls
are friendly, smiley and fun and SSC love playing hide
and seek and it with them. They are a great help.”
What do they do?
We look out and play with the SSC when we are on
duty. It is our responsibility to make sure the children
in SSC have an enjoyable break time.
We play a range of games like hide and seek to hot
potato and the children are glad to play a different
game every week.

Radio and Newspaper Clubs
Newspaper and radio club, which is run
by Mr Weatherby, gives information
through writing and speaking. With
many listeners and readers, it’s a big hit
with everyone at the school.
In newspaper and radio club year 5s and
6s work their socks off to produce the
Gorseland Times, which is read by the
school, their parents and sometimes
grandparents. Gorseland radio, which is
listened to by the whole school while they
eat their lunch in the big hall, is also a big
hit.
Ben, a Year 5 pupil who goes to the club,
said: “It’s really fun because you can
make new friends and use the
microphones, they’re great!”
We asked Mr Weatherby, the T.A that
started and runs the club, a few
questions:
How do you run the club to make it so
fun?
“Well I don’t, the children do everything
from deciding what goes in to editing.”
What gave you the idea to start the club?
“I was looking for a new different
challenge that will be relevant to
classroom learning, that will be a useful
life skill and to boost their confidence.”
When will the copies come out?
“There should be one each term, so three
altogether.”
Who can listen and read them?
“Everyone, there will be a copy on the
website and one copy for each class.”
Random questions
If you were in Casualty, what injury would
you have and why?
“A badly cut finger because I was building
some disco equipment with an electronic
blade and when I had finished I didn’t
realise that it was still on and I cut my
finger. It was hanging off!
If you were a cartoon, who would you be?
“Um, that’s a hard one but I think it would
have to be Jerry from Tom and Jerry.”
The club is on Monday lunchtime
and by what we’ve heard it sounds
great! Thanks for reading!

Music, Songs and More - Video Club
Galore
Video club takes place in the ICT suite on Thursdays at
lunchtime and is run by Mr. Weatherby. Most of the people
in video club did music club in Year 5.
Video club gives Year 6 a really good chance to work with
students from the other class. First we looked at some
lyrics and spoke about what we thought the song was
about without listening to it.
We listened to different types of music. We had to choose
one song out of seven. Then we had to find pictures that go
with the song which we chose.
We are currently making a video by using Movie Maker.
Eventually we will help make the video for the leavers’
DVD.
Here are some quotes from video club members. “Video club
is a great club to have at Gorseland because you can listen
to the latest music” - George.
“Video club is a chance for the year sixes to make their own
videos. Mr Weatherby has put a great club together and I’m
hoping it will go on in the future” - Yasmin.
“Video club is really fun because we get to do it all
ourselves” - Bryony.
Video club has been running for 3 years now and this is the
fourth year. It will hopefully go as well this year as
previous years.

Archery
Archery club is for year 6 on a Friday after school and everyone enjoys themselves while doing the sport.
Mr Weatherby runs archery and he makes it fair for everyone. There are several different competitions,
for example high score, one in every colour, chasing the colours, killer and most arrows in two colours.
This year Jack, Tom, Ollie, Melody, George and Jasmine are helping year 4 and 5 improve at archery.
It takes about 10-15 minutes to set up all of the stuff. There are two different types of bow. The yellow
bows are called jelly bows and they are for beginners. The brown and white bows are called recurves. The
highest score you can get is 10 and the lowest you can get is 1.
Rules for keeping safe
If someone is in the shooting range do not shoot because you might hit them and hurt them.
You should not run because you might trip over an arrow and hurt yourself.
Do not stand in front of the board when you pull the arrow out.
Here is a quote from Mr Weatherby: “I love archery as it is a sport everyone can participate in. We are in the fortunate position of being one of the few schools that offer another unusual sport to the children.” “Mr Weatherby makes it fun for everyone,” said Matt in 6a. “Mr Weatherby teaches archery in a fun and enjoyable way,” said George in 6a. “It is really fun but Mr Weatherby is a lazy teacher on purpose because he wants you to do stuff yourself,” Melody in 6b said. “It was really fun and I thought that the sweets where a good thing to aim for,” Charlie said. “It is really fun,” said Tom in 6a.
If you would like to join archery club, speak to Mr Weatherby.

ST CHRISTOPHER’S PRU VISIT GORSELAND TO HAVE
AN ARCHERY LESSON Some teachers and teenagers came in from St Christopher’s PRU and five year 6 children taught
them archery on September the 5th. We did it to give them a new experience.
Here are some quotes.
Ollie. “It was really fun teaching the adults because we don’t normally teach the adults, they
teach us”.
Jack. “It was fun and they did really well for beginners”.
George. “I hope the people from St Christopher’s PRU enjoyed the afternoon as much as I did.”
Mr Weatherby. “The children really enjoyed the archery. The adults and the children were really
impressed with the way yr6 taught them”.
Tom. “I thought they did really well for beginners”.
The year 6’s thought the visitors did very well as they have never done archery before.

GORSELAND ATHLETES RUN LIKE LIGHTNING
On the 12th of October 2012, Gorseland Primary school took part
in a cross country run at Kesgrave High School from, 4pm to
5.15pm. There were 4 races - Year 5 girls, Year 5 boys, Year 6
girls, and Year 6 boys. The pressure was on them all with Mr
Guite, the Gorseland team coach, winning the last couple of
years.
Gorseland got off to a cracking start with the Year 5s
winning both the boys’ and girls’ races, but that didn’t
seem to make the rain stop.
Coming 1st in both races, Mr Guite had everything to
smile about. Now he was just waiting for the Year 6s to
prove they were just as good.
Yet again, Year 6 did not let Mr Guite down with the Year 6
boys having the winner, Daniel. This is what he thought: “I’m
so glad! Everyone did brilliantly. Well done! We did very
well.”
Finally it was time to go home with every single athlete pleased with
their result. It was a very good day as Gorseland
won again.

The Gorseland Cross Country team took part in four different races
at Chantry Park on October 17th achieving some great results. All the
runners should be proud of themselves.
The Year 5 girls took part in the first race of the day. The
Gorseland girls had a great start because all the other
schools ran along the wrong path. Alex (5A) started the
great results with a very well deserved 3rd place.
The Year 5 boys’ race was next. Other schools had learnt
their lesson and ran along the right path proving harder
opposition than what was in the girls’ race. Ben in 5A came 9th
with a very good run timing his sprint to perfection at the end.
Year 6 had a lot of talent and expectation going in to this race.
They were next but could they keep the standard up that the
Year 5 showed? The girls’ race started and you could tell that this was going to be a
great race. Well, it really was. Jasmine came 5th and Natasha
was just behind in 6th.
The Year 6 boys’ race was next. After lots of practice the
boys were hoping to end the 2012 Chantry Park cross
country event with an almighty display. The race began and
Dan (6A) took the lead quickly with Matt (6A) and Kian (6B) closely behind him. Mid-
way through the race, Joe started to move up the order and took a well-deserved
10th place. Dan came 4th and said after the race, “All of the Cross country team from
Gorseland should be proud of themselves with some
amazing results.”
So it was a really successful afternoon at Chantry Park and
all of Gorseland should be proud as all four teams came 2nd
and we were the only school to have every team finish in
the top three.

Running to victory Gorseland’s Year’s 4s, 5s and 6s shine in cross country despite
rainy conditions
Lots of children were taking part in the Chantry park competition for
Gorseland School. We found many achievements despite the muddy
conditions of the track. All the children were looking forward to the
race but because of the rain children doubted if the race was still
going to be on.
Unfortunately Natasha fell over because of having a weak knee
therefore she stumbled and fell over but she got up and continued
running all the way to 8th position
Mr Guite and Mrs Rose have been training children to get ready for
competitions so Gorseland can win. Fortunately, Alex in the Year 5
girl’s category came 3rd and Ben in the Year 5 boy’s category came 9th,
also Jasmine (6A) came 5th in the Year 6 girl’s category. In the final
race, the Year 6 boy’s category, Daniel came 4th.
Jasmine said, “I felt proud to represent the school and happy that I did
it, but I wouldn’t have chosen to do it in the conditions that we did it
in.”
Molly said,” I did it because it is fun and healthy and exciting to go out
of school to race against other people I don’t know.”
Jasmine in 6A said, “It was hard because there were about 150 people
in each race.”

Flip-tastic!
Year 6 were treated to a gymnastics
lesson led by Pipers vale coach, Will
They started the session with an
energetic warm up. Then they sat
down and were told that they were
going to learn about how to jump and
land. Next, Will numbered them as
they stood in a line in groups of three.
After that, they had to jump off a
bench and land in the proper position.
The pupils then completed a circuit
around the hall trying out different
activities.
What it was like?
It was a short gymnastics lesson for
the pupils of Gorseland primary school
but afterwards most people had a
great big smile on their face. Jasmine
(6B) commented, “I thought it was fun
and something different to do on a
Monday afternoon. “Lewis told us that
he found it challenging but extremely
good fun.”
Some of the pupils have seen the
professional gymnasts doing their high
standard of training at Pipers Vale.
They were very impressed and
because of that started going to school
gymnastics club. It is brilliant so start
TODAY! (Ages 7 and up).
You could also sign up for other
gymnastics clubs including Pipers
Vale in Ipswich.

FOOTBALL CLUB
In y6 we have the chance to do football club which is run by Mr
Sampson, Mr Fenn and Mr Creasy. Roughly 20 to 30 people
train every Wednesday lunchtime on the Astroturf. Every week
we are improving our football skills. Most of the people who do
football club think it is a big success.
During football club we play a whole match. During the match
Mr Sampson, Mr Fenn and Mr Creasy explain to us what we
can improve.
We have played one game against Heath primary and we
played the best we could. Even though we lost 4-1, we really
enjoyed playing against another school.
Louis’ view of football club is, “Having fun, scoring goals and
enjoying every moment of football club.”
Joe’s view of football club is, “It doesn’t matter what the score
is, as long as you have fun and enjoy yourself you will have a
really fun time.”
Matt’s view of football club is, “It’s good because you can play
with your mates and we have lots of fun playing a whole
match.”

JUMP UP TO NETBALL!
Firstly, Netball club is a fun club for year six, since you get to play in different positions,
such as: centre, goal attack, goal shooter, goal keeper, goal defence, time keeper and
scorer. It takes place in the school’s M.U.G.A. (multi use games area) every Wednesday
after school for an hour. It is run by Mrs Rose and Mrs Fitzgerald. At netball there are rules
you have to follow these are very simple, these will come up later. Lots of people have
joined this club as it`s a sport that many people enjoy.
We warm up first by side stepping, skipping and jogging. After that, we stretch our triceps,
biceps, ham strings and deltoids. (Upper arm, upper arm, back of leg, shoulder).
The rules you have to follow in High 5 Netball are that you are not allowed to move your
feet when you have the ball, however you can pivot. If the ball goes over the line, the
other team receives the ball. The positions you can play in have certain places you can go,
so if you are playing in centre you can only go in the three thirds but not the semi circles.
Goal attack, goal shooter, goalkeeper and goal defence can only play in one semi-circle
and two thirds.
To summarise, net ball is a club that is enjoyed in year 6. Here are some quotes about
netball club:
“It is so fun and it is challenging to remember all the positions.” - Safie
“It’s fun because you get to play matches and Mrs Rose and Mrs Fitzgerald give you lots of
tips.”- Grace
“It’s really fun and I enjoy it. Mrs Rose and Mrs Fitzgerald tell you to have a go and it
doesn’t matter if it doesn’t turn out well!”- Holly

Gorseland Got Guitars
A report on what guitar
lessons are like in Year 5 and
Year 6.
What is guitar like in Year 5?
Guitar in Y5 is like a taster of Y6
guitar if you decide to carry on. You
learn the basics like simple chords
and the different parts of the
guitars. It might sound really boring
at first but it gets more interesting
once you’ve got into it. Our
Teacher, Mr Butcher, is very
enthusiastic and enjoys working
with us.
Mr Butcher says “It’s amazing, I love
it!”
What is Guitar like in Year 6?
You recap on the basics but as it
goes on through the year, you start
to learn some songs like Chasing
Cars and I Need A Dollar.
Jemma Clapson comments, “I really
like guitar because Mr Butcher is a
great teacher and we learn new
things every time.”
Quotes
Here is a quote from Zoe K in Year 6,
“I really enjoy guitar because we
learn cool songs.”
Alice K in Year 6 said, “I really enjoy
guitar because we learn modern
songs.”
Now here is a quote from Daniel T
in Year 6, “It’s cool.”
Maddy W in Year 6 said “It is hard to
practice the chords but you get
there in the end.”
Here is a Quote from Henry B in
Year 6, “I enjoy playing an
instrument I haven’t played before.”

At Gorseland there are many opportunities to get involved with music and playing instruments such as
Violin/Viola, Guitar, recorder and Flute.
Mrs Taber, the violin teacher, has been
coming here for 8 years and loves her job.
She is very enthusiastic, organised and
works hard to make you the best player
you can be.
On Wednesday afternoon she comes in
and does a 20 minute lesson which
doesn’t seem like a long time but it is
surprising how much you can do if you
practice.
Mrs Taber spoke to us and said “I’ve had
many pupils of a very great standard who
have put in a lot of practice so they have
achieved high grades. “
You may have seen that each year Mrs
Taber and her pupils perform in the
summer concert. Playing in this concert
improves your confidence. Did you know
that only 10% of children in year 6 can play
the violin so it is a very special talent?
If you don’t fancy playing the violin then
you could join Mrs Taylor’s choir. Two year
6’s said “Choir is great fun, we would
recommend it to anyone. “
Warning: Watch out if you are near a
violinist because you don’t want a bow in
the nose.
Competition: Name the four strings of the
violin from lowest to highest. Contact
Bryony (6B) or Grace (6A) to win. First
three to see us will receive the prizes.

CAMERAS, MICROPHONES, COSTUMES-
WHAT WERE YEAR 6 DOING?
Film Week
Year 6 had a fantastic week from the 15th of October, from clumsy footballers to evil
computer masters, custard pies to super animals- and as if this wasn’t enough, the fuchsia-
haired former ballerina Evil Bob - it’s been Film Week for the Year 6 classes. Evil head
teachers, suspicious raisins, missing crowns, strange bubbles and even grammar! Here’s
more information.
Year 6 had laptops, pencils, paper and brains to think of a witty, imaginative plot for a hero
story. Although this was a tough challenge, lots of people enjoyed thinking of their own idea
for a professionally recorded film, which would be shot around the whole school. Rahul, 6A,
has given his opinion: “I thought it was a tough challenge – we had lots of agreements
despite disagreements – but in the end we came up with an amusing yet serious story!” Find
out more about Rahul’s script in Captain Clumsy, headlined as Hero Saves the Day on page
?.
Year 6 also had to focus on props and costumes. Some costumes were simple enough, plain
home clothes or a cape, but others were much trickier. Props presented another problem, but
it was very minor. Just three of the many props were sweets, an Xbox controller and custard
pies. All costumes and props were gathered successfully, we are pleased to say.
Everyone had the chance to get stuck in and take part in acting, script writing, crewing and
everything that a film and camera crew need.
Ellie, 6A, says, “It was really fun, especially to be able to hold the boom mic* – but the best
part was throwing custard pies in my film Pie Guy**!” All of Year 6 put tremendous effort
into making these films the best they could be.
But of course, specialist adult help was required. Year 6 send a special thank you to Paul
Press and Megan Ingold, who brought in the necessary equipment and experience to make
these films. Without them, Film Week would not have been possible.
5 films were made in each class, all of which were successfully edited. Year 6 had a thrilling
(but somewhat embarrassing!) afternoon watching 9 of the 10 films, due to the tenth still
requiring edits.
The following nine** articles talk about the films as though they are real, but we here in
Year 6 would like to reassure you that they are all fantasy!

DR. SAGU DEFEATED!
Techno Tom and Jupiter, the bold superheroes, have done it: on the 22nd of October they
defeated Dr. Sagu.
Dr. Sagu is an evil scientist who was planning to rule the world and abduct everyone who
was in his way because if he can rule the world, he could have the power to be the leader of
the gods. His lifelong dream was to rule the world and all the gods.
Dr. Sagu became evil by working on an experiment that went badly wrong. He tried hard,
but got frustrated that he wasn’t able to gain any success; and instead of swallowing the
bitterness of unsuccessfulness, he started spilling it on the people. How unfortunate he
was!
He used his hacking skills to destroy all the security systems in the world. Dr. Sagu did not
listen to the advice that he was given, “Intelligence is not a privilege but something that
would help someone or something.” Dr. Sagu did exactly the opposite, but Tom and Jupiter
would not let that happen.
They entered his secret warehouse and had a violent battle. Tom and Jupiter were
outnumbered since Dr. Sagu had his evil vampires but Jupiter knocked them out and Tom
defeated Dr. Sagu. They arrested him and the crowd who heard the news cheered for
Techno Tom and Jupiter. He is now in the most fiercely guarded prison in the world.
Techno Tom and Jupiter’s true secret identity revealed!
Children have wanted to find out the heroes secret Identities and they are Thomas as Techno Tom and Jake as Jupiter the cyborg!

WATCH OUT, BOB’S ABOUT. Our number one super star, Katniss, has regained her singing and dancing talent, after losing it to
Evil Bob on the 19th October. THE DANCE AND SING TEAM, Super Smooth, Wayne Willington and
Groove Girl, saved the day.
Earlier that day, Evil Bob had planted some special popcorn which was designed to remove
people’s singing and dancing talent. The reason he did it was because when he was a teenager, he
wore a new pink tutu and fell over in his big solo during a ballet show. Ever since then he has hated
singing and dancing.
Katniss realised she had lost her singing and dancing talent at a concert in
front of 10,000 fans. Some witnesses spoke to us when she realised her
voice was gone. They said it was a number one disappointment; they also
thought Evil Bob, the Evil mastermind, had struck again.
Katniss had to use the secret signal to get the attention of The Dance and
Sing Team. She shouted as loud as she could, “MANGO JANGO!” The super
heroes heard the emergency call and went to investigate immediately.
Wayne Willington told Katniss they were there to help and she should copy him. He did all these great dance moves and without realising it, he knocked evil Bob out, who was creeping up behind him, while doing so. Evil Mevil mind, Evil Bob’s sidekick, started to throw evil popcorn at him. Wayne picked up a piece of popcorn, EVIL POPCORN, and ate it. Suddenly Wayne Willington could not dance. He tried to sing but he was not that good before! Super Smooth realised that the bit of popcorn must have stopped him from being able to sing or dance.
Evil Mevil Mind popped out of nowhere and told them it was her and her evil boss, BOB, who had made and planted the popcorn. She wanted to help them, because she loved singing and dancing, but her boss, BOB, hated it. She told them to follow her quickly. The heroes looked confused but they followed.
They came to a kitchen, where the sweets had been made. Wayne Willington and Katniss waited outside while Evil Mevil Mind, Super Smooth and Groove Girl went inside.
Groove Girl demanded that Evil Mevil Mind should make some good sweets to bring their talents back. Although Evil Mevil Mind was feeling under pressure, she made the sweets as quickly as possible.
Katniss and Wayne Willington ate the sweets. They tried to sing and dance and they did. The new sweets had brought back their talent. The next thing to do was to get Evil Bob.
Evil Mevil Mind gave Bob one of the new sweets, which made Evil Bob dance and sing like he never had before.
While everyone was celebrating their victory, Bob and his bag of popcorn disappeared. The heroes are still searching for him.

Commander Liam and Ambitious Ash have stopped the two villains, General
Gawky and Captain Clumsy, from making football coach Didia Drugba really
clumsy. General Gawky and Captain Clumsy wanted Didia Drugba to get
their revenge by making him clumsy because when he was General Gawky’s
football coach, he made him wear a skirt and a wig.
The heroes saw the villains at the football pitch, where they were arguing
about whose power was better. Ambitious Ash said, “We are here to stop
you villains.”
Captain Clumsy said, “RUN.” The heroes ran and ran after them until they
stopped, turned around and attacked each other. Then General Gawky
knocked out Captain Clumsy.
Suddenly an idea popped into Ambishous Ash’s head, he said, “It’s time to
do my super fart!” He aimed his bottom at the villains and POFF!
“That stinks!” moaned the villains. They both collapsed.
When they both woke up General Gawky said, “I’m wearing a skirt and a
wig.”
“Noooo! Not again!” reacted Captain Clumsy.

HEROES SAVE A TRAPPED GIRL!
A ten year old girl gets attacked by Colchester Zoo animals!
On Tuesday 16th October 2012, the heroes, Heroic Harmony and Super Sidekick saved a local ten year old
girl called Rosy Smith from Colchester Zoo.
Rosy was skipping into the zoo entrance one sunny morning when animals escaped from their cage. They
trapped the ten year old girl inside the cage.
Meanwhile at Hero HQ the phone rang continuously until Heroic Harmony picked it up. We were told that
they teleported to save Rosy. They arrived at the zoo and saw Rosy locked up.
This is what Rosy said after the rescue, “I was terrified that the animals had just flung me inside the cage.”
We were told the animals chased Rosy and the heroes. The heroes had a plan to trip the animals by using a
rope that was lying on the ground. Super Sidekick, being one of the heroes, explained this, “As we were
helping Rosy to escape, me and my fellow companion Heroic Harmony had the plan stuck in our heads. We
were on the case!”
Although the leader of the villains was captured, his accomplices decided to take over schools in
Martlesham Heath now, so watch out!

Queen’s crown gets stolen on school visit.
On the 18th of October it was a glorious day,
the Queen of England was going to Gorseland
school to announce that Gorseland won the
sporting achievement of the year award.
School councillor Sophie was showing the
Queen around when her crown got stolen.
Before any other spy claimed the case, Lola
and Lexi flew in and took it. “They did a pretty
good job” announced the Queen. The Double L
team (Lola and Lexi) discovered the evil
mastermind’s lair by using a tracking device
then they unmasked the villains.
It was said that the three evil villains are
Mimi, Zack, and Sophie. Apparently, Sophie
brainwashed Mimi and Zack then programmed
them to steal the crown.
“We would have got away with it if you spies
didn’t start interfering,” growled Sophie.
Sophie is now awaiting trial next week.

Bizarre Competition to Brain-Sucking
Catastrophe
Bizarre fruit competition leads to
kidnapping of innocent child
On the 18th of October 2012, a family of three
were having a day at the local park. The youngest
daughter of 36 year old Charlotte Panic, 5 year
old Scarlett disappeared, supposedly down the
slide. She says that she was following a small child
around her age and that both of them slid into a
smelly sewer and something had been attached
to her head. “It felt like I was being squished into
a small tube when I was in the portal, but it’s all
hazy, now.” The eldest daughter, 16 year old
Jade, said that her sibling disappeared without a
trace, leaving their mother an ‘hysterical wreck’.
Heroic Appearance
The distressed mother of the two girls made an
attempt to find her child, therefore disappearing
down the slide to find her. Meanwhile, at an
unknown location, a worldwide hero, Kit-Kat
Carrie, ‘sensed’ stress from Charlotte and was
soon to the rescue. It is said by an anonymous
witness that she arrived at the park five minutes
after the disappearance. The hero was late to the
rescue as Jade held her up for at least five
minutes. Jade said that she merely wanted to
have the hero’s mobile number and that she
didn’t mean to hold her up.
Slide to the Rescue
After the dramatic hold up, Kit-Kat Carrie found a
way into the underground sewers and confronted
the villains to bring peace to the family. Victoria,
who was recently bailed out of prison, was first to
be captured, along with her scientific creation,
Nugget.
Questioning at the Station
The villains were taken in for questioning and
Nugget revealed all. “We were going to use the
Brain-Sucker 5000 to suck the brain juice out of
the smarty-pants’ brain to make a pink raisin.
Then we would suck it out her ear!” The ‘Brain-
Sucker 5000’ was taken for examination in a high
security lab by the world’s best scientists. Results
of the tests are said to be confidential to the
police and scientists.
Prison Sentence
Nugget and Victoria were taken to Court and
pleaded guilty. Victoria was sentenced to 12 years
in prison for kidnap and possible murder. Nugget
escaped from the station but was found on the
20th of October in a deserted alley. Nugget was
taken back to the station and was sentenced to 5
years in prison followed by a further 5 years
working as a police ‘dog’ for cases of kidnap and
murder. When Nugget was told this, it, as its
gender is unknown, declared, “Meep! I would be
meeping down in Broadway if it weren’t for all
you stupid oxygen breathers!”

Teacher trouble turned around
Teacher attempts to destroy learning
but super powers save the day and the
teacher turns a new leaf.
How it started
Miss Spoiler, a 28-year-old
teacher at Gorseland Primary
School, has changed from her old
self, but it never used to be this
way!
Before this miraculous change, students
had reported incidents such as
confiscating phones, sweets and hair
gel! She was so cruel people sometimes
seemed to see her doing things in front
of the children she has told them off
for.
This unstoppable teacher was
bothering students along with parents.
People are told something very unique
happened on the 15th October 2012
which involved Ben a student who is a
confident body builder.
What was this incident you may ask?
The incident took place at Gorseland
Primary School one afternoon, when
Miss Spoiler announced that the class
were going to play cricket. In the
middle of the lesson, just after Miss
Spoiler had apparently commented on
how bad the class were, Ben revealed
his secret powers and used them on
Miss Spoiler, who suddenly became
nice. Everyone was shocked with this
miraculous change.
“I thought the cricket lesson was very
fun but I don’t think I played very well! I
was amazed when Ben came out with
that bubbly thing!” said Charlie.
So, thanks to Super Bubble powers, Ben
saved the class from Miss Spoiler’s
cruel ways and they are now looking
forward to a happier time at school.

Head of all schools kidnapped by
evil Deputy head
On the 17th October at 10:30am, the
Head of All Schools was marking
spelling tests, but the Deputy, Miss
Bullet asked to see the head in the
courtyard and when he went there he
got zapped by Miss Bullet and her side
kick, Sparkles. They took him to the
dark forest beside the school because
they wanted to take over all the
schools.
Luckily, Marigold, his daughter, had
seen all.
“Miss Bullet locked me in my dad’s
office and I didn’t know what to do. I
would normally help my father but I
couldn’t, and I felt very annoyed with
myself”
Fortunately, Captain X and Sparkles
were on the case, as they were aware
that Marigold was trapped in her
father’s office.
First, they freed Marigold and then
went off to the dark woods to rescue
the Head master.
When the Heroes finally arrived at the
dark woods, they found themselves in a
rather difficult situation because after
they rescued the head, the villains
started chasing Captain X and her side
kick round and round. Fortunately, the
heroes eventually managed to capture
the villains by tying them together with
a rope.
Miss Bullet and Sparkles got life
sentence in jail for their crime and
won’t be seen again for a very long
time.

Super hero saves the world
from evil Steve and his gang
Over the course of a week in
October, two rivals went head to
head in a battle of grammar versus
slang.
Tensions began to rise when
Grammar guy collided with Slang
Steve on the streets of London.
Steve sneakily swapped the English
dictionary for the slang dictionary
and put it on Grammar Guy’s desk so
that the next time Grammar Guy
read the dictionary Grammar Guy
would get his English wrong.
After realising what had happened,
Grammar Guy suggested a Spelling
Bee battle to settle their
differences. The best speller was
Grammar Guy, who won convincingly
by spelling all his words correctly.
Slang Steve failed to spell any of his
words correctly.
In the end of the day, Grammar Guy
forgave Slang Steve and they
became friends.
