Good afternoon everyone!
Wow! One week to go until Christmas; where has it gone?
We have been so busy this week; the children have been working really hard on their NFER tests. The purpose of these tests is simply to assess progress in maths, reading, spelling and grammar. Class 4 have worked incredibly hard and are making lovely progress; Miss Hewitt and I are so proud of them.
The children have thoroughly enjoyed lots of rehearsals this week too; we're all working so hard and really hope you enjoy our performance on Tuesday.
Today the children were treated to a wonderful pantomime performed by M and M Theatrical Productions. Just 4 cast members created a wonderful show; re-enacting the famous 'A Christmas Carol'. They loved every single minute; what a super start to the Christmas season!
Please practise your lines a little more everyone and have a look at the song words that need a little more rehearsing too!
See you Monday Class 4!

Good afternoon everyone!
Only 2 weeks to go until we all break up for the Christmas holidays; the children are beginning to get very excited too! They have been working incredibly hard on our Christmas performance and are thoroughly enjoying all our practises. They're working hard to learn their lines; we have been so impressed with their enthusiasm and success in learning both their lines and the many songs we have been preparing for you! They thoroughly enjoyed entertaining the coach driver and swimming staff as they continued practising before swimming today!
We can't wait to show you all; although we do still need a few more practises!! The children have been asking about costumes today; we will let you all know on Monday what you'll need to provide. Please don't spend money buying costumes though as we do have quite a few in school; they are currently all down in KS1 at the moment as they prepare for their performance on Monday, so we will be more informed about what is available then.
Have a wonderful weekend and please do keep going with those scripts everyone. I've suggested the children have scripts until Wednesday but then need to be able to perform without them for the rest of next week!! No pressure at all!!!!
See you all Monday

Good afternoon everyone!
Gosh, Friday again! Where does the week go?
The children continue to work extremely hard and are an absolute joy to work with. They are thoroughly enjoying our 'Animals and Humans' topic and are loving the cross-curricular learning. The have been completing their animal art and have created fabulous health education posters surrounding dental hygiene. Next week we are looking forwards to creating interesting models of the digestive system!
In literacy. the children have been completing their playscripts for a scene in 'The Dancing Bear'. We have been so impressed with their work; they have really taken so well to script writing!
The children are working hard to practise their songs and role play for the Christmas performance; even in the forest!! They can't wait to perform for you all!
They're loving the handball sessions at the moment and becoming quite competitive too! The children were all amazing at swimming this morning and thoroughly enjoyed their lesson. Some of the children have been awarded with Personal Survival certificates; an amazing achievement and very well deserved. The whole class are working so hard and making some wonderful progress.
Have a super weekend and see you all on Monday!

Good evening everyone!
I can't believe it is already Friday! Where has the week gone?
We've all had a wonderful week and the children continue to produce some fabulous work; not surprising, as every single one of them work incredibly hard.
The children are continuing to enjoy 'The Dancing Bear'. They love using role play and drama to re-enact scenes and are currently working on writing their own play scripts; they are looking amazing too!
They are thoroughly enjoying extending their learning about animals in science and are looking forwards to moving on to the human digestive system too!
Below, I have added just a few photos of their wonderful art work this week; the children are trying to replicate some of the amazing art by Richard Symonds. I hope you agree, they're doing a super job too!
Have a wonderful weekend everyone!
See you Monday!
