Friday 20th January

Posted: Jan 20, 2023 by: Elaine Matthews (EMatthews) on: Class 4

Good afternoon everyone!

What a fabulous week we have all had in class 4. We are so proud of the children; in view of the icy conditions in the playgrounds, we have had to endure indoor breaks all week. This must have been so difficult for the children but they really have coped amazingly well! Don't tell them, but I think they deserve a special treat next week!!

It has been very noisy in science this week! We have been exploring sound and playing a wide range of musical instruments to check for the source of the vibrations. How we reached the end of the day without dreadful headaches on Tuesday, I really don't know!! It was very noisy, but great fun too!!We will be looking into 'dynamics' in music next week so I think earphones may be a good idea!! 

The children are thoroughly enjoying 'The Secret Garden' in literacy and have been producing some wonderful work. Today they have been completing their diaries from Mary Lennox. That poor girl, she really wasn't happy on her arrival at Misslethwaite Manor!

The children continue to really enjoy our Friday morning hockey; they are developing some brilliant skills. Today we have focused on attacking, defending and scoring. Next week we'll definitely be ready for some matches. Rugby is going really well too; the children had great fun scoring their tries as they launched themselves onto the crash mat!! 

We held our democratic vote today to elect our school government class representative; many congratulations to Abi on being elected. An enormous well done to everyone who worked really hard to prepare your fabulous speeches and stand for election. We were very proud of you all and the results were very close indeed.

Congratulations too to all the year 4 children who entered the boccia/boules competition at Holmfirth High on Tuesday; you were all amazing! It was so lovely to see so may of you there!

Have a super weekend everyone!

Love from Mrs Matthews, Mrs Scott and Miss Hewitt xx
