We are delighted to inform you that a trip has been booked for our Year 4 children. In celebration of the Into Film Festival. The children will be attending a viewing of SpongeBob the Movie at Vue Cinema, Romford.

All of Year 4 will be in attendance and we will have a private screening of the film.

On Thursday 19th November all children should be in school by 8.45am as we will be leaving promptly from 9.15am. We will be travelling by bus and expect to return to school by 1.00pm.

The children will eat lunch at school once we have returned from the cinema. In case we are back late that day, all children will need to bring a packed lunch  in a carrier bag that is clearly labelled with their name and class.

Year 4 - Greek Wow Day

 

On Tuesday 10th November, Year 4 will be hosting a fantastic Greek WOW Day in school!

To celebrate our Ancient Greeks topic, children are invited to come to school, dressed up as their favourite Greek person – this could be a famous Greek, an ancient Greek figure, philosopher, warrior, god or goddess!

Throughout the day, the children will take part in a range of fabulous Ancient Greek-inspired activities, bringing their learning to life and making links with our exciting curriculum topic.

We can’t wait to see Year 4 transform into a wonderful world of Ancient Greece for the day! 

There is no need to buy an outfit!  Below are some examples of homemade costumes for inspiration. It’s a great opportunity for the children to get creative, use their imagination, and have fun making something themselves!

Black History Month - We Need Your Help!

 

As part of our celebrations for Black History Month, our Year 4 classes will be creating a vibrant art display inspired by the work of Matthew Small.

In order to do this, we are asking for your help to collect clean, dry recycled materials that the children can use for their creations.

Materials that we are looking for include, cardboard, plastic items, paper goods and textiles. Please send any collected items into school with your child.

Do you play a specific role in the community? If so, we would love for you to come into school and share your experiences and inspiration with the children. Please let your child's class teacher know if this is something that you would like to do.

Many thanks

Year 3 - WILD Passport day

What a fantastic first full day of WILD Passport our Year 3 pupils had!

We started the day by learning to braid as a team, discovering that clear communication, listening and cooperation were essential to creating a successful braid. The children showed great patience and encouraged each other throughout.

We then explored our Zones of Regulation by making emotion sticks using vegetable peelers. This gave us the opportunity to discuss different emotions, how we recognise them and which emotions we had experienced or were feeling during the day.

The children also enjoyed exploring nature using magnifying glasses, looking closely at their surroundings and discovering some of the smaller details in the natural world. 

In the afternoon, we worked together during orienteering, using maps to find different locations around the school. This challenged the children to use their map-reading, problem-solving, communication and teamwork skills.

It was a busy and exciting day, with lots of opportunities to learn, explore and work together. We are so proud of the enthusiasm and teamwork shown by everyone and can't wait for our next WILD Passport adventure! 

What to Bring to Every WILD Passport Session 

Please make sure your child brings the following to every session:

• Wellington boots

• Spare long trousers – navy blue or black jogging bottoms

As the months get colder, please also send your child in with:

• A warm coat

• Gloves

• A scarf

• A warm hat

Independence is an important part of WILD Passport. Children should be able to change into their clothes and shoes independently. Please practise getting changed, putting on wellington boots and managing coats, hats and gloves at home so they can confidently do this themselves.

Pine Class - Forest School session 3

Pine class spent the afternoon thinking about ways to follow directions. We used sticks and stones to set our own routes to follow. We used compasses to work out north, south, east and west. There was also an activity with Miss Float using the iPads for an orienteering challenge. Everyone had a go at all the activities.
