Year 4 Weekly blog Friday 10th May "Lord, I am not worthy that you should enter under my roof, but only say the word and my soul shall be healed."

What a lovely worship we had this week, led by these three children. It was all about Jesus’ Sacrifice and how He accepted the will of His father. Children’s message at the ned of the worship was to accept God’s plans for you and learn to listen to Him. We have delved deeply into the understanding of the consecration of bread and wine into Body and Blood and have been reflecting that when we receive the Body of Christ we become Christ’s body here on earth.

In English this week, the children wrote a persuasive letter from the father in the book - urging his daughter to come back home. These were so well thought out and emotive! What a super group of writers you are!

Maths has seen us delve further into reasoning about fraction size and understanding different representations of fractions. We have only one final multiplication fact to learn when mastering number - then we have gone for gold!

In French. children have learned numbers up to 100 and used this to help give a French weather report in different French cities - using compass points too!

In history this week, it was time for children to make some conclusions about the race we call the Vikings. Were they raiders or settlers? Could they give a balanced view, thinking about what recent evidence has shown? Children made zig-zag books to present their conclusions.

For PE this week, we tried to put elements of our gymnastic sequences created last week onto the apparatus. Also below are some pictures of our sound investigations here children discovered that sound is caused by vibration.

Conversation starters

1. Have a chat about Holy Communion. How do you feel about it? What does it mean to you? If parents made their First Holy communion, can they tell you what they remember about theirs?

Let’s Celebrate!

Tilly received a Kiki Chameleon certificate this week. You are really considering your tasks carefully and ensuring that your work is both creative and well thought out.

Joshua received a Bobby Bee/Clara Clownfish certificate. We called you our King of fractions this week! You noticed so many things! You are being a good listener and buzzing with your learning.

Learned and Wise butterflies

This half term we will be on the lookout for all the children that are learned in their actions, finding God in all things. Those who are wise, who use their learning for the common good. These are children who are trying to drive their own learning forward. This week our butterflies goes to John-Paul and Seth who have been stopping and thinking before they act and making wise decisions.

Lunchtime role model: Finley

Marvellous Lunchtime manners: Amelia

PE stars Lorenzo and Lily for some very creative moves on the equipment in the hall.

GOING GREEN - This week, Grace has her certificate! You have worked so hard for this!

Notices

Holy Communion this Saturday and next Saturday. Please can children arrive at 9:15am at the priests house. Parents can then proceed into church and find your seat. We have allocated two pews per family. Children are very well-prepared and we are all really looking forward to the occasion.

Helmets- We are hoping to buy some scooters for outside use on the playground, for money we have won for being the BEST class (with Year 3 too) at walking to school! (Well done) We are wondering if anyone has any spare helmets their children no longer wear that they could kindly donate?

Rosary - The month of May is where we pray the rosary together. If children wish, they can bring in their own set for this month to use.

Date for diary: Tuesday 18th June Our Anglo Saxon/Viking trip to Tatton Park. Children need to come dressed as either an Anglo-Saxon or a Viking on this day. More information will be given nearer the time.

Enjoy a sunny scorcher of a weekend. We will see half of you bright and early on Saturday morning at church.

Year 5 Weekly Blog 3.5.24- ' There is no pillow as soft as a clear conscience'

This week in RE, we have taken our discussions of reconciliation and forgiveness further by looking into how we sin and how we use our conscience to make these decisions. The children really reflected on how they use their own conscience and what conversations they have with themselves before making a decision.

We also had our fifth enrichment morning of the school year, with Year 5 taking a trip down to Reception. The class spent the morning with Mrs Hartley for a lesson of German. The children were greeted upon arrival with some traditional German greetings whilst also learning numbers 1-10. They then tested their knowledge via a game of German bingo!

What have we been learning this week?

English- After finishing our independent write up of part 1 of ‘The Highwayman’, we began to dive into part 2. The anticipation has definitely gone up with all the action unfolding- with the children also not knowing what will happen next.

Science- This week, we decided the use our knowledge of the states of matter, including how they change, to practically discover which materials melt and which burn. This led to our discovery of the terminology ‘reversible/irreversible material’ .

History- The deep dive into the history of crime and punishment has taken a gruesome turn as we looked at the period of time when capital punishment was introduced. We examined one of the first hanging cases in England discussed the social and legal protocols behind this type of sentencing.

Deeper thinking questions

Every week now, we would like children to explore their weekly learning at home by discussing interesting questions with family members. This may be at the table during dinner, before bedtime or when out for a walk. However you choose to discuss these questions is up to you but this may give you more of an insight into what we have been learning in class.

Do you think having a jury system is correct? Would you change it?

Has any of your family members/anyone you know been involved in a jury?

Let’s Celebrate

• Rex for being a resilient learner- Even being the speedster that you are on TT Rockstars, multiplication and division in Year 5 is tricky. At first, you let this get to you but you have persevered through hard work and focus and are really showing progress and fluidity during these lessons.

• Niamh for being a creative learner- I never knew how much of a computer whizz you were! You have blown me away with your creativeness and your knowledge around purple mash during our game creating unit (Almost making it impossible for me to complete your game). I can not wait to see what your final game will look like.

• Virtue Butterflies- Our virtues for this half term are learned and wise. Our butterfly goes to Ola for being such a learned person. You are learning every day, both academically and personally. You take in and observe others to process what the right and wrong choice is which has led to you always making the right one.

  Lunchtime Certificates

  • Marvellous Manners- Arthur

  • Role Model of the Week- Ben

Notices

• Bank Holiday Monday- School will be closed this upcoming Monday, so school will be reopen on Tuesday 7th May.

• Homework- Can all children make sure that they are practicing their spellings and making sure their homework books are back in on Thursdays.

• Football Kits- If you have played for the school football team this year, could you have a look for any kits that you may still have in which they are to be brought back in. This will consists of blue top, blue socks and white socks. This will either be the Our Lady’s kit (with CN Active sponsorship) or the Premier League Primary Stars kit.

• Thursday 16th May- We will be going on a school trip to Lancaster to visit the Castle and the Police Museum to further learn about our crime and punishment unit in History. The payment is now live on parent pay.

This week...

Here comes the sun! What a fabulous week. It has been so warm we have set up our BIG water play in the garden. Such fun even if we did get a bit soggy!

Our garden is now beginning to look spectacular, there is so much growing…we can’t wait to start eating everything, mmmm.

This week we managed to go on another Super Croccy mission. The Owl babies mother has gone missing and had been frozen by Ice Woman. We found her camouflaged high up in a tree, and shivering. We had to rescue her and warm her up!

Just in case you haven’t met Super Croccy…here he is!

Emma’s blog

Hello everyone,

We have had a fantastic week, we have been so busy growing our brains. 

The children have had a great time in Mr. Nay's PE class, the children really look forward to it. This week included a tricky game, and the children had to throw a tennis ball into a football net which was quite far away. Some of the children couldn't believe their eyes after their ball went into the net. Mr. Nay split the children into 2 teams and they had to throw as many balls as possible into the other teams net. It was great fun with balls being thrown everywhere. The children are really working hard on their over and underarm throwing skills. Well done everybody. 

The children have been practicing their listening skills and following instructions to the Superman, and There’s a worm at the bottom of the garden song. The children have asked if the songs can go on the blog, so here they are, enjoy! 

Click here for Superman

Click here for Wiggly Woo

Speaking of worms…something very exciting has happened to our wormery and fruit seeds. The worms have started to bury the leaves that we put in the wormery. They have been pulling them down, making more gaps and tunnels in the soil. It's amazing to see. Also, some of our fruit seeds have started to germinate. The apple seeds and the tomato seeds are coming along well but the orange seeds are yet to crack open and shoot.

The children have been busy in the garden making a snail hotel and ant farm (known as a formicarium).

The children were looking and following snail trails to find some guests to stay in our hotel. We have found around 12 snails in total, and we left some fruit outside to see if we could attract some ants but so far, we only had a few visitors. In the end, the children found more ants dotted around the garden, so in they went into their new home. 

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend.

See you all on Monday for another fun week.

Emma 

Michelle’s Blog

Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s blog. The weather has been kinder to us this week, so we have mostly had fun in the garden, looking after our plants and seeds that we are growing. Everything has really grown so much, we are taking lots of care and giving everything lots of water to drink.

This week we have continued to watch our worms in the wormery and we decided to make our own worms out of spaghetti. They were very wormy and squirmy when we used the tweezers to try to pick them up.

Why not make your own worms at home, just soak the spaghetti in hot water with a little food colouring for your very own worms.

We read Superworm again, it’s one of our favourite stories and we started to think about how the Wizard Lizard was always telling everyone what to do and did not listen to others views. We know how important for everyone to have a voice in nursery. Sometimes when we can’t decide we take a vote…the biggest number of votes wins! We decided to watch a video about democracy on CBeebies, the Treasure Champs. Click here to watch. We voted for which story to have before lunch, maybe you could have a family vote this weekend.

As you will have seen in Mrs Gregan’s newsletter last week, the month of May is walk, scoot or cycle to school month and in nursery we are joining in too. Every day we are collated the numbers to see how many of us walk, scoot or cycle to nursery. This is a good way of keeping fit as well as being really good for the environment. Fewer cars means a better planet for all of us. We’ve only got one planet so we have to look after it.

Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the Bank Holiday on Monday,

Michelle

‘Walk, Scoot, Cycle or Skate’ to school month

The council have decided to hold a ‘Walk, Scoot, Cycle or Skate’ to school month during May. We want to encourage all members of our school community to get involved. If you drive to school, could you park a little bit further away so that you could walk in and quieten the roads? There is the Parish Centre car park that can be used or even just further down the road. Do you have bikes or scooters in your shed that need their cobwebs brushing off?

Each day during May we are going to tally this in each class and create a whole school picture. We really are counting on you to keep our roads around school safe.

Sport’s Day

Sports Day

Well done to everyone who has already sent in their t-shirts…I am impressed! Don’t worry if you have not had time we still have time.

Foundation Sports Day is being held on Tuesday 18th June at 2.00pm. All children are invited to attend this event but must be in nursery no later than 1.45 pm wearing shorts and trainers. As in previous years each child will be designing their own t-shirt. We therefore ask if everyone can bring in a. s. a. p. as named, plain white t-shirt. We have to start early to ensure that we get them all finished in time!!

Lastly, don’t forget that it is Bank Holiday this weekend so sadly there will be no nursery on Monday., but we will be back on Tuesday!

I hope the weather remains sunny and warm so we can fire up the BBQs.

Stay safe and God Bless

Year 4 Weekly blog Friday 3rd May "I am the vine and you are the branches."

This week in our worship, we have looked at the word ‘Connection’ and thought specifically about how we are connected to God, by thinking of Jesus’ message - I am the vine and you are the branches.’ Deep class discussion examined how we are linked to God and Jesus - how we are now Christ’s Body here on Earth. Children looked out for people in class this week who demonstrated this in their actions this week.

In RE, children have been learning about the Earliest Christians - specifically the first ever martyr St.Stephen and his great faith in Jesus. They then learned about Saul, who became St. Paul after he saw the light on the road to Damascus. We had a beautiful worship too - all about God’s power, led by these three children:

On Wednesday this week, children’s enrichment activity was with Mrs Harrison for…. ballroom dancing. After getting over some initial embarrassment, children joined in whole-heartedly.

In English, we have started Mrs Lyons’ favourite novel of the year, “The Firework-Maker’s Daughter. This book has it all - great characters, humour, adventure and a great female protagonist! We have been honing our reading skills and learning lots of new vocabulary - just in chapter two!

Maths has seen us finish unit fractions and go on to learn non-unit fractions. We are also working so hard to prepare for our Multiplication Tables Check on Friday 14th June. Children did a mock test this week and have been reflecting on what they personally need to do next.

In Computing over the last few weeks, children have been learning about how to search effectively on the internet. This week, we focused on questioning the credibility of things we read and watch online. This is hard to navigate - but we have looked at clues to tell us whether information is credible and learned we can check more official sites to make sure. It is good to question and analyse.

In history this week, we have looked for evidence of Vikings in this country by examining digital maps to study place names. We can tell by the ending eg ‘thorpe’ or ‘toft’ to see if it was settled by Vikings!

Today in Science, we did an experiment measuring in decibels who was the loudest in class. We then discovered what exactly sound is by a series of observations.

I was sent these images below from the RSC from our Romeo and Juliet playmaking festival so I thought I would share them with you. They really capture what a special time it was.

Conversation starters

1. Our focus in Holy Communion this week has been on sharing the Holy meal with Jesus at mass. Can you talk about sharing meals with each other? What has been your favourite occasion where you shared a meal together. How does it feel to sit down with your family and share this time together?

2. Can you explain to your parents what sound is?

Let’s Celebrate!

Gus received a Lizzy Ladybird certificate this week. You take control of your learning Gus and you strive to get better and better. Brilliant reading this week!

Louis received a Bobby Bee certificate. You are such an enthusiastic learner who has grown in confidence and always gives 100% effort

Learned and Wise butterflies

This half term we will be on the lookout for all the children that are learned in their actions, finding God in all things. Those who are wise, who use their learning for the common good. These are children who are trying to drive their own learning forward. This week our butterfly goes to Joseph who always offers the hand of friendship to anyone - he does not discriminate. He notices good in others and tells them.

Rosary - The month of May is where we pray the rosary together. If children wish, they can bring in their own set for this month to use.

Holy Communion session 3 Thursday next week. Please bring booklets completed up to page stated in letter.

Holy Communion ties - These can be bought on parent pay and picked up from the office.

May is ‘Walk to School’ month. Why not try to walk, scoot, bike to school - if not all the way then part of the way. Get out in the lovely sunshine. We are still having serious issues with parking on double yellow lines outside school - I know our school council are discussing how we can proceed forward. They have plans!

PE days, Wednesday and Thursday

Date for diary: Tuesday 18th June Our Anglo Saxon/Viking trip to Tatton Park. Children need to come dressed as either an Anglo-Saxon or a Viking on this day. More information will be given nearer the time.

Reading

We have really upped our reading this half term, with some children in the millionaire club, some doubling their word count for the year and lots of others making really good progress.

“To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow.” – Audrey Hepburn

We have had a wonderful week gardening, with Mrs Hotchkiss joining us. We have planted some more potatoes and bulbs, cleaned pots ready for more seeds and have done some general housekeeping around the beds. I was such a lovely day with the sun shining and the temperature rising.

Year 6 Weekly Blog 'I am the Vine...You are the branches'

---

"I am the vine…you are the branches; He who abides in me and I in him will bear much fruit."

This week we look at John gopsel and looked very closely at the image above and what Jesus was teaching us. There were many beautify interpretations as we looked closely at the art work. Some said that ‘this showed that God is our support and strength’. We then listen to the gospel and dicsussed how Jesus wants us to know that we are branches who cannot stand alone. Jesus himself is our gardener who continuously nourishes our spirit. If we remain faithful to Him, our life will prosper and bear much fruit. If we remain loyal to our belief, the hard work we did will result into more than we ever expected.

---

Continuing to learn…

We only have one more (short) week until SAT’s. It is vital over this long weekend that children continue to revise and work towards their targets. I have set some papers to complete over the week for children to have a go at, but there are other areas that are unique to them as individuals that they know they also have to practice. Please have a look at the homework page and have the conversation with them to see how best to support them with their revision. This week we have had a practise SAT’s week, where every day they have took one mock. We are so proud how they have tackle this with such a positive attitude and resilience!

This week, we had our enrichment morning where Year 6 went to Year 1 to learn some science with Miss Drummond. They looked at the changes of state, whilst making their very own edible rock forms- think they enjoyed eating it the most!

English - This week we have learnt all about the three different forms of tense: simple, progressive and perfect.

Maths - We have grapled algebra with Mrs Gregan, tackled some tricky ratio problems with Mrs Harrison, revised Roman Numerals with Mrs Webster and also revised converting measures, which we will contunue next week.

Delving deeper through talk …

Every week now I am going to give you a question that I would like you to explore together and discuss at home. This could be over the dinner time as a family, at bedtime, on a walk or even in the car. How ever you choose to discuss this question is up to you, but the idea is that it will help to give an insight in to what we talk about in school, help children to understand more about themselves or others.

Cna you explain to your parents the difference between simple, perfect and progressive tense?

With only one week left until SAT’s what is the one area you want to practise and master?

Learned and Wise butterflies

This half term we will be on the lookout for all the children that are learned in their actions, finding God in all things. Those who are wise, who use their learning for the common good.

This week we thank Emilia and Matilda for working for the common good of our classroom this week.

Leading Learners

Well done to Ruby-Lily and Connor-Sean this week.

Ruby-Lily It is so important to apply the skills you have been taught and to do this independently-  you have shown that you CAN. You have learnt to be thorough, take your time but mostly believe in yourself as you can do anything you put your mind to! Well done for reflecting on feedback and doing what you can to improve.

Connor-Sean, we are so proud of your attitude towards your learning. You are always so focused and ready to learn. You are also very honest about what you need to work on and are always happy to share this, always rising to a challenge or when someone asks you to dig deeper. We love how you are competitive with yourself, you don’t focus on marks just the progress you make, and goodness me are you making progress! Well done Connor-Sean!

Shakespeare Playmaking Festival 2024 ROMEO AND JULIET

Children in Year 4 performed 6 scenes from the opening of Romeo and Juliet to an audience at Hodgson High School this year. When they arrived they received some last minute coaching tips from Emma from the Royal Shakespeare company and then they were ready to go!They captured the rivalry between the two feuding gangs brilliantly. Seeing their confidence grow and their stunning ability to retain all those lines AND understand them was a great experience for all!

Here are some photos and a video of the performance:
