How did the Romans change Britain?

Year 4 are enjoying their first topic - How did the Romans change Britain?   The children have many questions to answer such as When and why did the Romans invade Britain?  Where did they live?  What did they eat?  Who did they fight?  They are working hard to gather the facts by reading our class texts to help them understand what life was really like for Roman soldiers almost two thousand years ago.  Mrs Blomeley


Welcome to Year 4! Meet our other halves!

Year 4 used the halved photographs of their "school selves" to create the other half of the picture, which reveals their "other selves."  We think you will agree that they are amazing!"  We have some budding artists in our midst!  Mrs Blomeley


Year 4 Home Learning for w/c 20th July 2020

Here are this week’s Home Learning activities.  As it is the last week I have made sure they are fun!  I really like the outdoor learning activities from the Canal & River Trust as well as their ideas for Yoga.  Thank you for all your hard work during this difficult time – you have been amazing in the way you have adapted to the very tricky task of working at home!  Your parents have also been amazing so please do say thank you to them for all their help.  I hope you all have a lovely summer and I look forward to seeing you in September.


Results of Times Table Rock Stars Guinness World Records® Title Holder!

To all those Rock Legends out there!  Back in May I posted a link about becoming a Times Table Rock Stars Guinness World Records® Title Holder!  I'm not sure if anyone entered from our school but the results are now in and the title was won by a 10 year old boy from Long Eaton.  Take a look at his winning video by clicking on the link below.  His speed is incredible!  Well done to anyone who did enter - please let me know if you did!

Reuben's Mountain Climb!

Reuben took his learning to new heights this week!  Our current topic is Rivers and Mountains and he climbed more than half way up Snowdon!  He's also written a report on Snowdon, which is the highest mountain in Wales.  I am very impressed Reuben - this is fantastic learning!  Mrs Blomeley
