Year 3 – Cricket in the sun!
Our PE session today was a hot one! The children were learning and practising their fielding skills ready for our Summer term of cricket.
Please remember to send your child with a suitable PE kit and trainers every Monday, ready for our PE session. As we head into the warmer months, it would be good for them to have access to sunscreen, sunglasses, hats and a water bottle as we will be trying to take our PE sessions outdoors as much as possible. Thank you.
Class 10 – We are Geographers
Our new expedition, What Happens When Nature Strikes?, has got off to a fabulous start with our first case study into geography. This week, we have been learning about tectonic plates and how these effect each other to cause earthquakes and tsunamis. We have also explored differences in how mountains and volcanoes are formed. Why not ask us about the different parts of a volcano and see if we can remember what they do!
Y3/4 – Dog Safety Assembly with the Blue Cross Trust
On Wednesday, we were fortunate enough to be visited by the Blue Cross Trust who delivered a really important assembly all about how to stay safe around dogs – big and small! Children learnt how to read a dog’s body language as well as the right and wrong ways to act around dogs to keep themselves, the dog and others safe. Why not ask your child if they can remember some of the warning signs that a dog might be unsafe for them to approach or to pet?
Class 10 – Chair Drumming
Today, we enjoyed our first chair drumming session with Mr Pickles. Fortunately, the weather was good and we could take our music outside – well done everyone!
Year 3 | Family Learning
Thank you to everyone who attended the Year 3 Family Learning. The children had a great time learning new facts about mountains, volcanos and earthquakes in readiness for our new expedition; Earth Shattering Events!
Class 10 Layers of soil
Below is some examples of the beautiful work the children produced in expedition today!
Great work guys, so proud of the hard work this first week back!
Year 3/4 | Expert Visitor
This week, we were lucky enough to have Kerry come in to talk to the children about our new expedition. She was unfortunate enough to have experienced the flooding in Fishlake in 2019 and explained to the children how her family and neighbours were affected by this terrible event.
Class 10 The Earth
To hook us into our new expedition, the children have been looking at what’s inside the earth and their fun activity was to make their own earth showing the different layers.
What a great start to the week !
Year 3 and 4 Family Learning dates
