Marvellous Merits

A massive congratulations to all of the Year 4 children who gained an award today. They've worked ever so hard to finish off the term and I'm immensely proud of all their determination. I hope they all have a fabulous half term holidays and are looking forward to our Tudor and digestion topics when they return. 


International day of women and girls in science

Today Year 6 presented an assembly about different women and girls who have made a great impact in the world of science. We discussed how primatologist Dr Jane Goodall has worked tirelessy to rehome chimpanzees who have lost their habitats for various reasons. We explored how Nobel Prize winner Marie Curie discovered new elements called radium and radioactivity.


Peaceful Poses

Year 4 have been been working hard this half term perfecting their yoga poses. I've so impressed by their flexibility, regulated breathing and their peaceful approach to our sessions. They have made great improvements and extended their repertoire. The coach assessed them today and was highly impressed by their mountain, chair, eagle, cobra, sun salutations, baby poses and many more. A special mention goes out to Ted, Flynn, Isla, Lottie, Millie and Orson for their dedication. 


Ode To Joy in Year 4

Year 4 managed in 2 weeks to play Ode to Joy along Mrs O'Leary on the accordion. They were fantastic and definitely exceeded all expectations. Well done Year 4. 


Conductors and Insulators

Year 4 had a fabulous time making their circuits work by testing objects to see if they were conductors or insulators. They found that scissors, sharpeners, purple pens, the plug, the door handle and even earrings and glasses all had areas that conducted electricity. Great experimenting Year 4. 


E-Safety / Competition Winners

Our pupil leaders have chosen 6 brilliant winners of our E-Safety Competition. They looked at how social media affects mental health and what we can do to improve this. We had many entries from across school and it was very difficult to decide. Well done everyone. 


Esther Sans Takeuchi

Year 4 have been researching a very inspirational electro scientist- Esther Sans Takeuchi. She is the most decorated female scientists in America with over 140 patents for her work in increasing the power of batteries used to power implantable cardiac defibrillators, saving thousands of lives every year. 


Let’s spread the love

Mental Health Week in Year 4

This week has been mental health awareness week. We have worked hard at making life better for us. The children have been given a positive attitude wheel to help improve their mental health and a daily challenge. This has really helped integrate our positive messages and well-being book into everyday tasks. Our worry wizard has been very busy championing well-being this week. We even had a lesson about friends and good friendships with Netchen.  Great resilience and thoughtfulness this week Year 4.
