Year 4 have shown fantastic geographical skills this afternoon! They have learned all about the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. We looked at which countries are in these tropical areas and what the climate is like! 
Year 4 have been enjoying their PE sessions so far this term! We have been doing gymnastics and have practiced our precision with our rolls, making sure our bodies are held in the correct positions and using our core muscles 
Earlier in the week, year 4 took part in ‘Democracy Day’. We learned all about a democracy and our voting system. We then took part in a mini election in class, voting for the most impressive animal…before we then created our own manifesto to be a School Councillor! We then used the polling station to cast our votes 
Congratulations Thomas and Meryl 
Year 4 have begun their topic of ‘Contrast and Compliment’ in art. We tried to create a colour wheel in our cool task and use our sticky knowledge around which colours are primary, secondary and tertiary!
Year 3 had so much fun during our Fit 4 Fun morning. We had so much fun whilst getting ourselves fit!
Year 3 had a fantastic time at Monkton Stadium for Sports Day. We loved every minute of it!
In DT, Year 3 having been creating mini greenhouses. We used plastic, wooden lollipop sticks, hot glue, tape and blu tac to create our mini greenhouses. We then evaluated our greenhouses to see if they were fit for purpose!
Year 3 went on their final library trip, this year, last week. Unfortunately, Catherine was not in but our lovely Mrs Chamberlain filled in and read us 2 amazing stories. We can’t wait for our Year 4 library trips!
Year 3 demonstrated how well we could do breast stroke in swimming today. We then finished the session with some fun free time in the pool with it being our last session of the year!
In DT, as part of our Greenhouse topic, Year 3 have been looking at frame structures and how to make them strong and stable. We built structures out of cocktail sticks, marshmallows and blu tac and looked at how to strengthen them. We then tested if our structures were strong and stable enough to hold a carton of milk!
