Date: 11th Feb 2025 @ 12:18pm

Throughout Spring 1, Year 6 have been using the book 'The Man Who Walked Between Towers' to inspire their writing in English. 

This book focuses on the amazing feat, of world renowned tightroper Philippe Petit, who walked between the north and south tower of the World Trade Centre in 1974. 

Year 6 have thoroughly enjoyed learning about Philippe Petit and have written some brilliant pieces of writing this term from first person accounts (as both Philippe and witnesses), putting on their journalistic hats and creating fantastic news reports (check out our video here: https://youtu.be/VFizeF3vBxw) and creating detailed and informative biographies. 

Take a look at our brilliant finished biographies below!
