YORKSHIRE WILDLIFE PARK!

Here are some more pictures of Year 4 enjoying our day at YWP yesterday. We had such a great time seeing all the animals and learning lots of amazing facts about Polar Bears and how they survive in the wild.

A big well done to you all for your fab behaviour representing the school yesterday.

Reading Immersion in Year 4!

After reading the first two chapters outside, we retreated back in to our toasty warm classrooms for a yummy hot chocolate and to write some fantastic predictions about what we believe will happen in our text.

We’d like to make a shout out to all of the children for their excellent listening skills and for sitting so sensibly- you were all super stars! It was a really lovely experience!

Learning Legends!

A big well done to todays learning legends! We have lots of reasons to shout out today from awesome learning attitudes in maths, great collaboration in English and for showing kindness in our classroom.

Well done guys, super proud as always and a huge high 5 from our crew polar bear too!!

Music Hook Day!

WOW! What an awesome day we’ve had! I’m so pleased with how engaged and excited all the children have been throughout all the Music themed activities linking to our case study.

We began the day by designing CD’s linking to our learning around climate change to immerse our classroom.

We then researched Music through the ages. Each group focussed on music from a different decade and used the IPads to research and create a mood board!

Then the moment we’d all been waiting for… KARAOKE! We were all blown away by how brave and confident everyone were to get up and sing in front of everyone! What an absolutely brilliant afternoon!

Yorkshire Wildlife Park Visit

The below will hopefully answer any questions which parents/carers may have about the visit which were not outlined on the letter that was recently sent out.

  • We would like children to wear school uniform as this will make it easier to supervise and group children. It is also practical for the cold weather and walking around the park (We do advise comfy footwear – trainers are fine).
  • We will be visiting the gift shop. The maximum children are allowed to bring is £10. Children do not have to bring spending money though – it is optional.
  • All children will need a thick winter coat (hat, scarf and gloves) as we will be walking around the park either side of the workshops.

Thank you,

Mr Oldridge

What is beautiful in our community?

Year 4 have kick started Hook Week with a lovely walk around our community today.

We focussed on what is beautiful in our community and what we think is spoiling it.

The children were really reflective in their responses and also enjoyed the fresh air chatting and catching up after Christmas! There was a lovely, buzzing Crew spirit today!

The children then made pledges about what they are going to do to keep our local community beautiful! Super start Year 4!

Christmas Competition Winners!

Well done to Abbie and Damion for winning our two Christmas competitions! The winning elf name was ‘Cinnamon’ and the total number of candy canes was 52. We managed to raise a fantastic total to go towards our Year 6 leavers fund so thank you for all of your donations.
