Year 3/4 had a fantastic Christmas party with lots of dancing and party games!
Year 4 were lucky enough to take part in the Skip Into Christmas Festival at Temple Park today! We loved taking part in all of the skipping challenges and had so much fun!
Year 4 enjoyed their Christmas Stem day this week. We focused on making a Christmas decoration using natural materials, thinking about how we could cut and join our materials. Well done Year 4, we think they’ve turned out fab!
What a gorgeous time Year 4 had for our Winter Wonderland yesterday! We loved our hot chocolates and marshmallows around the fire and getting our golden ticket punched by our conductor, Mr Richardson!
It was so lovely being able to share some lovely festive magic with our parents and carers who were able to come along!
As part of their geography topic, Interconnected World, Year 4 conducted some field work today. We visited Jarrow town centre to investigate the public transport links we have in our area. We surveyed some members of the public to conclude our research, before collating our findings back at school, which we will use to prove or disprove our hypothesis.
Year 4 have LOVED the arrival of their class elf this week. We held a class vote to name him, and have loved watching his antics each day!
Welllllll….where do we begin? What an absolutely magical day Year 4 have had at Lilidorei, at Alnwick Gardens! 
We were blown away with their amazing play area (we loved spending time there 
) and Lilidorei village full of elves, hobgoblins and sprites. We hung our own decorations on our very own St Oswald’s Christmas tree and listened to a festive story, before having our lunch. We even saw some reindeer too!

Last week Tony Clark (Anya and AJ’s dad) got the Headteacher’s star of the week certificate for his amazing knowledge of the Vikings and sharing this with Year Four during their COOL afternoon. Here he is proudly showing off his certificate which is now proudly on show on the family fridge!
Last week Year 4 enjoyed their half termly library visit. We enjoyed our story from Catherine the librarian, before returning our books. We then explored the library and took out some new books to read back at school.
Year 4 have had a fabulous DT filled day! For our DT topic, Fresh Food Good Food, we have been looking at healthy snacks. We started by looking at food packaging, working out what information was found on packaging and why it was there. Then we designed our own packaging, making sure we included all the necessary information.
We then spent our afternoon making our very own healthy snacks. Using all of our culinary skills, we created some fruity popcorn, some hummus, and some fruit skewers. We enjoyed trying these before thinking about our evaluations after.
