Well done Class 4 for a wonderful transition day; it sounds as though you had lots of fun with Mr C!
We have been working in small groups this week to create strong bridges using only paper and sellotape. We will be finishing and testing these next week.
In Maths, we have been making symmetrical creatures using our names. I wonder if you can read the names in the pictures below?
We have also been working on lots of lovely art work about the cogs ticking in our heads and linked it to our fantastic story of Hugo Cabret.
In PE, we had some fun with the balls and playing French Cricket in the sunshine. Let's hope that the sunshine stays over the weekend.
Have a fantastic weekend, keep safe and see you all next week for more fun.

Well done Class 4, we have managed to fit a lot into this week!
We have been busy completing our final assessments of the year and we are all very proud of how hard you have worked.
After finding out about Isambard Kingdom-Brunel last week, we have been testing out our own paper bridges to find out how we can make them stronger. Who knew paper could be so strong?!
We all had a fabulous trip to the Sports Barn. It was lovely to see the children so excited when we opened the school doors on Wednesday morning. Our wonderful Sports Partnership organised a great day and the children took part in lots of different activities throughout the day including cricket, athletics, parachute games, bowling and handball. I hope everyone slept well, I know I certainly did!

We have all had the most fun this week! It has been a little different, which was great.
It started with the children having their first trip in such a very long time. They had a great time by the sounds of it and were all exhausted. I think the staff were all in bed by 8 O'clock! We will try and get a few photos added to the blog over the next week.
The week ended with some more Sports - Sports Day!
What a wonderful morning it was. All of the children took part, smiled and giggled and participated brilliantly! They were a real credit to the school and their parents. We had Mr Curly Wurly, join us as our mascot. And what a great mascot he was. He even joined in one of the races. He beat all of the teachers. Four legs was definitely faster than two today! Thank you to everyone for showing such amazing sportsmanship too. It was a joy to be part of and to see you all encouraging and supporting each other. Really well done. Mrs Kelly is going to put some photos online.
We did some amazing work on Titus Salt in History and we created our own towns. We thought about what facilities we would want, what housing and recreation spaces might be good and we named them. We even had a Whaleway Station!
Fantastic this week Class 4. Next week is another exciting one with our Transition Day on Tuesday.
Have a great weekend, keep safe and have fun.

What a fantastic week we have had!
We have been so busy learning all about Alexander Graham Bell, Isambard Kingdom Brunel and George Stephenson. They were amazing people who have invented things that made such a great impact on our loves.
We have also been working again on our times tables and really impressing us with those. Our winning streak is over and Class 3 have been working hard to get the Mathletics trophy. Many congratulations to them.
You all turned into wonderful musicians today and ended the week with a chorus of amazing sounds. We learnt about crotchets, rests and quavers in music and wrote some of our own compositions. Amazing work. Here are a few photos of your scores.
We have lots to look forward to next week, especially our trip to the Sport Barn. Have a restful weekend and we shall see you all next week.

Another beautiful, sunny week! A big well done to all of our little hay-fever sufferers - you have made it through a tough few days with lots of sneezing, runny noses and sore eyes.
In PSHE on Monday, we thought about our environment and who is responsible for taking care of it. We also listed lots of little changes we can make to help take care of the world around us. We made some super enviro-meters.
Our book, The Invention of Hugo Cabret, is getting interesting now. We spent one of our lessons getting into character and creating freeze-frames from the story.
Miss Monday has been working with a small group of children to design and build their own moving cars. The children have decided to use wind power and have finished making their models. Next week they will put them to the test to see if they work. Here are some of the designs and their vehicles.
We have been learning a little about the Railways in History and how it impacted on our country and the world when it was invented and we drew some wonderfully detailed images of factories.
It has been another busy and fun week in Class 4.
Well done everyone.
