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!
Another wonderful and successful club session today. Creating ‘fun and crazy’ sculptures with nothing but paper. This group are a wonderful creative bunch and worked really hard on their art work today! Very impressive guys, very big well done!
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.
A reminder of the days that XP Outdoors takes place:
Tuesday – Year 4
Wednesday – Year 3
Thursday – Year 5
Friday – Year 6

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!
This year, we are working hard to raise money to develop our reading for pleasure library so firstly, we would like to say a huge thank you for all your sponsors from the colour run which will go along way to helping us!
Secondly, we still need your help! We would love for you to help us design the library based on the space we have to use which is the foyer area near the hall.
Please design your ideal library and share your plans with Miss Knowles in person or at [email protected] This is for everyone across school to get involved in! Please send your plans by 7th October.
We can’t wait to see your fantastic ideas which will help us design the perfect library!
This week’s the children had the chance to make their own friendship corded bracelets which they seemed to enjoy very much! Lovely little group and great effort.
