Two teams were put together and they played two matches. A great morning for the children getting to represent the school at football for the first time. The
Year 4 were invited to Rough Close in the Sainsbury`s School Games to take part in OAA (Outdoor Adventurous Activities). The children had a brilliant time in the Paris Olympic themed event finding pictures and facts to complete the tasks. Well done Year 4!
In Year 4, we focused on ‘Vista’ for our Spring art topic. We set up an ‘art gallery’ where we anonymously commented on our classmate’s art work. We really enjoyed doing this because we had the opportunity to look at everyone’s art.
In science, Year 4 have been learning all about electrical conductivity. Today we ‘conducted’ an investigation of our own – we used a variety of objects around the Parker Building to see if they would allow electricity to pass through our circuits.
In Design and Technology, Year 4 have been using William Morris’ work as an inspiration for our very own prints! We sewed a hem, printed using printing inks and embroidered our material to create some amazing designs.
Year 4 had a super time in the sun at Conkers! We did a variety of activities, including a barefoot nature walk, orienteering and a water-assault course! We all had such a fun time, here are some photos:
The Year 3/4 girls football team played in their last tournament. A brilliant year for the girls with the confidence and teamwork improving throughout. A very difficult group which saw them lose their opening 2 games but then bounced back to win their final 2 games. Well done to all the girls that have been involved this year.
