Water Safety 30.04.24

/ y4wcm / Leave a comment

As part of our block of swimming lessons, the children have to learn how to be safe around water such as rivers and lakes. This means our swimming lesson next week is a little bit different.

Children are still to arrive with their costumes on underneath their uniform, however girls will need to bring an ordinary pair of shorts and a t-shirt and the boys just a t-shirt.

Any questions please don’t hesitate to talk to Mr B or Mr Baines. Thank you!

Summer One Week One!!

We had a busy week this week after coming back from our 2 week break! In writing, we have been creating our own short story describing an animal from our poetry book: The Lost Words. We practised writing sentences using fronted adverbials, conjunctions and expanded noun phrases. In maths, we have had a successful week looking at decimals- with a focus on ordering and comparing decimals and understanding hundredths.

For science, we have started our new topic of habitats. Our focus was understanding vertebrates and invertebrates and flowering and non-flowering plants. We even did a quick tour around the school grounds to see what we could spot! We are looking at artists and their drawings of ‘Still Life’ and we have been discussing our favourite pieces of art.

Y4MB

In our Beat That this week, Halima, Khalid, Alice, Alexia, Caroline, Jakob, Tyler, Lexi-Mae and Lottie all scored really well.

In our CLIC, both Niamh and Lexi-Mae scored the maximum 12 for the first time. As a class we did really well! Lottie scored 12 again.

Alice, Halima and Jakob all scored 11 and they will tell you the question they got wrong was because of a silly mistake!!

Lily-Rose, Mani, Josh, Caroline, Muiz, Vinnie and Soumaya should also be proud of their score. 

Our postcard went to Jakob for making careful choices all week both in his learning, how he was with others outside and helping other children with their learning. 

Y4KB

In our Beat That this week, Muhammad, Ronnie, Girum, Anayah and Zayn all scored 30 or over! Impressive stuff!

In our CLIC, some children scored 12 for the first time! Well done to Charlie, Noah, Namah and Oakley.

Ronnie, Saoirse, Cory and Tegan all scored 11. Well done guys! All of the class should be super proud of their scores this week. They did really well!

Naza received our feel proud postcard this week. She always works hard and is really trying to read her work back more and is just such a hard worker. She should feel really proud!
