Apologies for no photos of our E for Excellence and Star Writer in Ash, we will ensure that these are added on Monday.
Our Year 4's have delved into their first Science unit of the year - The Digestive System.
They have been exploring the journey of food and that key parts of our body support the breaking down of food from the entry point of the body, to the exit point.
In addition to the highlight of successfully saying and spelling oesophagus, the children furthered their understanding of the digestive system by undertaking a science experiment this week!
Some even displayed resilience when conducting the experiment as the texture of the food in the 'intestines' stage was understandably nauseating.

In all, this experiment further exposed the brilliance of our biology and we look forward to our next steps in learning.
Willow class have worked incredibly hard to create an audience for this sculpture. They listened to the
instructions given and all thought about body positioning and how they would look at the sculpture. As
you can see there were a variety of different positions the children chose. Don't we have some amazing
sculptors!

Mrs Stanley has asked the children in our school to help keep our outside areas tidy. It's a collective effort so we are asking them to take turns on a rota. I asked the children in each class if they would like to help. Look at the response we had!
The children are so fortunate to have all the equipment we have such as den building and pallets in the outside area. We also have pens, paper, buggies and scooters, balls and hoops outside in OPAL. With all this wonderful equipment comes the responsility of caring and tidying for them. By having an understanding now, they will in turn have an understanding of responsibiliities we have as adults. You are amazing year 4!
