It has been a wonderfully busy and art-filled week here in Year 4! As we approach the end of the term, the classroom has been transformed into a festive workshop, with the children showing incredible creativity and focus. We kicked off our crafting by making our own Christmas cards. The children used their thumbprints to create adorable reindeer. It was a fantastic way to add a personal touch to their greetings, and there were plenty of smiles as they added the finishing details. Looking ahead, the children have also been hard at work on their 2026 calendars.
Perhaps the most exciting project was completing our Christmas tree decorations. This was the culmination of our Design & Technology (DT) unit. The children used Computer-Aided Design (CAD) to build their models digitally before bringing them to life. It has been a brilliant way to see how modern technology and traditional crafting can go hand-in-hand.
The children are so proud of what they have achieved, and we can’t wait for them to bring these treasures home to share with you.
