4 Red had an excellent day on Thursday, when they had a visit from Williby Roc’s. We went into the garden to help plant some trees. We made bee bombs to encourage more wildlife into our garden and we even had time for a scavenger hunt.
The children in Year 4 have really enjoyed learning through song this term. Listen to them sing their French number song to 21. très bien Year 4 !
We had a lovely afternoon helping out with the garden area. We planted some plants, made wild flower bombs, went on a scavenger hunt and collected lots of natural resources.
This week in Music, we have been learning about notation. We learned the technical names for the notation and how many beats they are. A semibreve is 4 beats, a minim is 2 beats and a crotchet is 1 beat. In groups we created a four bar rhythm with four beats in each bar using glockenspiels and then performed it to the rest of the class. After our performances, we evaluated our compositions.
In drama this week, we discussed how school and class rules keep us safe. We came up with lots of rules that we follow in school and created a short performance to show what might happen if the rules were broken. After our performances, we thought of adjectives to describe what the school would be like if rules were always broken.

We have had an amazing time celebrating World Book Day! We have spent the day doing lots of fun activities around Roald Dahl’s books. We created storyboards about ‘The Magic Finger’, went on a book hunt around the school, created our own ‘Dream Jars’, went on the hunt for a hidden golden ticket and did lots of fun activities in the hall!
The children in Key Stage 2 have been enjoying stories in French this week to celebrate World Book Day – La Journée du livre (translates as the Day of the Book)
Year 3 listened to the story ” Toutes les couleurs “( All the colours) Year 4 read the story “Le loup qui voulait changer de couleur” ( The wolf who wanted to change colour) Year 5 enjoyed the story “Pâques Schtroumpfantes” ( Smurphing Easter) The children then completed a book review for the story.
