Matilda Club

In the Spring and Summer term, we would like to hold a ‘Matilda’ drama club.  This will be open to all of Key Stage Two (Years 3, 4, 5 & 6) and held after school on a Thursday. The club will consist of a range of musical theatre skills such as; singing, dancing and acting, with the end goal of putting together a production of Matilda the musical.

If your child is interested in a place in this club, please return the letter given out by your class teacher before Friday 10th October.

Exploring Clay

Year 4 have had a fantastic time exploring the texture of clay and how to manipulate it into different shapes in preparation for making their own traditional Roman oil lamp.

Multiplication Academic Crew

Crew Haycock have been challenging each other to improve their times-tables knowledge. Using our heat maps, we have identified where we have made great progress and where we still need to make that extra little push. Keep helping each other guys…together we have got this Multiplication Times Tables Check!

Super Sergei

Well done Sergei in your first ever martial arts competition. Bringing home a silver and bronze medal was superb! I hope you are proud of yourself. Everyone here is so very proud of you!

Family Learning Fun!

What a busy morning! Thank you to all of our parents who joined us this morning to hook your children into their new expedition. Special shout out to Sienna’s mum who helped us to build our Roman centurions. They were much trickier for children’s small fingers to manipulate and build than I had anticipated. Everyone had so much fun and had learnt so much that moans and groans could be heard when it was time to pack away – so we didn’t – we extended the session instead. I hope you had a great day 4H, I know Miss Carter loved her morning with you and I have thoroughly enjoyed the afternoon too!

We love maths!

Year four have made a fabulous start to their new maths learning. Using the manipulatives, they practised building numbers up to 1,000 and representing them in different ways.

Well done, Year 4. Keep working hard!

I am compassionate!

Thank you to this young man who was so kind and compassionate all day on Wednesday. He saw when others needed a helping hand and did whatever he could to help them out. He helped me when he could see I had too many things to carry and his manners are absolutely second to none! I can guarantee that should you see him in the corridor, he will always say hello and ask how you are! What an amazing young man!

Roman expert visitor!

Thank you Claire from Want2B workshops. We had a fantastic experience with you yesterday. Our favourite activity was using the role play shields to march in line as Roman soldiers using the correct Latin terms and stereotypical Roman army formations.

Looking at the genuine Roman artefacts was really interesting. Although, it felt weird to know we were holding buttons from the uniforms of actual Roman soldiers. Building aqueducts was great fun too. This really challenged many of us, so we had to be courageous to give the task a go and resilient when things went a little wrong and our aqueducts collapsed.

Special shout out to Zara who was the first to successfully build her aqueduct! You superstar, well done!

What an amazing day!

Compassion in 4B

On the third day of Crew Week, the class completed some activities to demonstrate the character trait: compassion. We took part in the colour run to raise funds for the school as well as our charity the RSPCA. We also completed a kindness chain to display the kind acts we have done some far this year which we will hopefully add to as the year progresses. Finally, we decorated our own baby egg which we had to show compassion and care for to make sure it didn’t crack.

Well done 4B, we have shown what a kind and compassionate class we can be!
