What a lovely penultimate week in Year 4! On Monday, children entertained their audience with a super performance of 5 clarinet songs, along with Year 5. We would all like to thank Mrs. Maddocks who has helped children become musicians this year - and will be teaching them next year too.
We were very proud of our athletes this week, who took part in an intra-schools competition of athletics on the field. There were many events such as the sprint and the triple jump. I was very proud of their sportsmanship, humility and care for each other. Well done athletes!
In other news this week, there was much excitement on Thursday morning, as our VIP, Mrs Hodges cut the ribbon to open our castle, which has been aptly named, ‘Castle Hodges.’ Joy oozed from the children as they went in for the first time and climbed in and out of the windows!
We have raced through division with remainders in our maths lessons which we did with sweets. Children picked it up very quickly. We are now ending our year in maths with time. They are also working in little teams to create a puppet show of a Viking myth, bringing our History, English and Science together, on their topic of light. They experimented with shadow creation inside and outside the classroom this week - when the sun actually came out that is.
Thank you so much for your contribution to our ‘Green day’ raising money for our new re-cycling bins.
Let’s Celebrate!
This week, Erin received a brave learner certificate for being so courageous and having such a good go at everything this week.
Benjamin received a Sadie spider certificate for excellent effort and participation. You are so productive and demonstrate true grit!
The whole class have received a Roger Robin certificate for superb teamwork and co-operation in all tasks this week, but especially in their making of puppet shows - accepting each others’ ideas and working towards a goal.
