How wonderful to catch up with Theo and find out about his continuing Blue Peter badge collection. Here are the badges that were awarded for Theo's tennis playing and also for his cake baking to commemorate the Blue Peter tortoise retiring from the show. Thank you for sharing Theo - which one will be next? Toby told me that he is busy working towards his first Blue Peter badge too - can't wait to see it Toby!

Making sense of BC and AD

In History today, we organised ourselves into a human timeline to explore BC and AD and understand distance in time and chronology. Brilliantly well done Year 4! This will really help when we dive into the Ancient Greek period!

Keeping safe online with Year 4

I was lucky to teach online safety to Class 4 this afternoon. I was so pleased with their mature responses as they discussed the important messages inside the videos and discussed what they do to ensure that they are safe online.

Thank you children.

Here are the videos for you to watch again if you would like to:

Story Telling in Year 4

In English today, we explored the key features of the Legend of Robin Hood by categorising the main elements and using our categories to take notes from the story, ‘Ambush in the Forest’. The children then used their notes to retell the story verbally using stick puppets!
