Year 4 enjoyed their Sports Day
We enjoyed a fantastic visit from GB Heptathlon Athlete, Lucy Turner. The children first completed their sponsored circuit, before enjoying an inspirational assembly by Lucy. The energy throughout the afternoon was electric and the children asked her some super questions. Thank you to everyone for your support and remember, you’ve got one more week to get your sponsor money into school.
Year 4 have been learning about The Ancient Egyptians. With Richard, we spoke some Ancient Egyptian language and prayers, looked at mummification, embalming, Canopic jars, pharaoh’s clothing, writing hieroglyphics using ink pens, playing Ancient Egyptian games and listened to Richard play an instrument from that era.
On Thursday 18th May, That History Bloke visited Year 4 to teach us more about the Ancient Egyptians. We spoke some Ancient Egyptian language and said prayers, found out about mummification, embalming, canopic jars and pharaohs’ clothing. We also wrote hieroglyphics using ink pens and played ancient Egyptian games. We all had a great time.
LITTERING
This week, Shay and Abbie spoke in assembly about littering. They told the school
that…
- Â Researchers estimate that over one million animals die each year after becoming
trapped in, or eating litter. - The most common killer of animals is plastic litter, notably impacting marine
animals. Each year more than 100,000 dolphins, fish, whales, and turtles drown after
becoming entangled or eating plastic. - Litter can become a breeding ground for bacteria and can spread disease through
direct or indirect contact with humans. It can also attract creatures such as rats. - As well as this, litter on the ground makes our local area look horrible. We should all
have pride in where we live and it is part of our responsibility to look after our
community and not litter.
We hope that this message will make everyone think a little bit more carefully about what
they do with their litter. If we all work together, we can make the world a better place!
Children enjoyed dressing in red, white and blue and enjoyed a variety of activities as part of their celebrations.
There were lots of smiling faces in our Easter Egg Raffle!
4NG had a brilliant time visiting the Openzone. We used the green room to film a news report about Yellowstone National Park and enjoyed following instructions to program lego.
On Monday 27th March, 4NW visited the Openzone. We had a great time using the green screen to make news programmes about Yellowstone Park. We also enjoyed making lego models and programming these to move.
