This week, Year 3 and 4 have been learning and studying the WW1 marching song – It’s a Long Way to Tipperary! We will be singing this at our Celebration of Learning / Christmas production so it would be really great if everybody could have a practise over half-term.
Thank you for your continued support, The LKS2 Team.
Well done to Imogen for her successes outside of school. Irish dancing is no easy style but Imogen and her dance team have had national success recently. They are now looking forward to competing at the World Championships in the coming year. It is always great to share extra curricular achievements with our crews and our wider school community. Well done Imogen, we look forward to hearing all about how you get on!
Thank you for attending Year 4 Family Learning and making it such a success. I thought the children grappled really well with the technology to produce some excellent pieces of art. I’m really looking forward to building on these skills to produce our final product. Take a look at what we got up to…
We had a lovely visit to the library in Thorne last week. We had the opportunity to explore the amazing range of books on offer, learn how the library works and delve in to a book too. The children gained a lot from this visit and they’re eager to return soon. There are many fantastic books that children are able to borrow so if you have any free time, it’s well worth a visit!
Please remember to send your child with appropriate XP Outdoors kit suitable for the weather – especially now it is getting colder and wetter! Appropriate footwear is essential as the children spend time in the grassy XP Outdoors area.

How many of these children’s books can you work out from the emojis? Add your answers in the comments!
This week, we had a great session exploring world religions. The children used their detective skills to find out the main beliefs, sacred text, place of worship and symbol for the 5 most widely followed religions. The children fed back their findings with respect and clarity. Well done class!
Parents and carers of Year 4 are warmly welcome to join us for Family Learning on Tuesday 8th October. The session will start at 1:30pm in your child’s classroom (please access school through the school office). To tie in with our second case study, we will be experimenting with digital artwork using iPads. We look forward to seeing you there!
This week we made 3D faces and aimed to apply some of the the techniques we learnt over the last couple of weeks. Loops, folds, curls, fringe, arches and tabs! They all got stuck in straight away and I was extremely impressed with all their efforts this week! Well done guys and thank you for having a go and listening so well!
