Today, Year 4 completed the cladding on their pavilions. It was a tricky job but the final models look great!
As part of our invasion games topic this half term, Years 3 and 4 have developed their teamwork and communication skills. Both classes have worked hard to develop their throwing and catching, attacking and defending skills in a range of team games and have also looked at different ways to move with a ball.
Year 4 are at the next stage of designing their pavilions! Today they built and reinforced the structures of their buildings!
This afternoon, Year Four began their new Design Technology. They have been tasked to build a strong, stable pavilion for an exhibition. Today, we started by experimenting with different structures using matchsticks and clay!
Year Four enjoyed time for colouring, outdoor time, sketching and yoga in between lessons today. Here is a glimpse of our fantastic yoga positions!
This week, Year Four began exploring structure and texture in music. They used body percussion to recreate the piece “Pitter, Patter Raindrops”.
Y4 finished off their half term at Beach School with a real treat! They enjoyed delicious s’mores which were roasted by the children on the beach fire. The session started with some shelter building just incase the dark clouds resulted in a downpour but we managed to escape the showers. The children enjoyed making some amazing sand sculptures in the sand – check out their fantastic creations.
Y4 enjoyed a visit from the Nissan STEM team. During the morning event, the children were able to build their own cars and explore Japanese culture. The children also set up their own car building production line and used their problem solving skills to improve its efficiency. Great work Y4!
To celebrate the opening of the new coastal path in September, Creative Seed have worked with all our children to rehearse an amazing carnival dance.
The children have been encouraged to attend the parade and join in the dances – once we know more specific information we will be sure to let you know!
What an exciting afternoon Y4 had! We enjoyed our first taste of orienteering in South Marine Park. We put our map reading skills to the test as we followed the course looking for the markers. On route, we were challenged to complete some problem solving activities which involved lots of team work. We managed to avoid the rain and had a fantastic time. It was a big hit!
