Huge congratulations to our Times Tables Rock Stars Leaderboard front-runners in Key Stage Two this term. Their efforts at home and in school to be the best they can be in all-things multiplying and dividing has been nothing short of amazing! Mental maths is such an important part of our journey in mathematics in school and regular practice a few times each week can make a significant difference to confidence, progress and attainment. Well done everyone and keep up the good work after Easter!
Reverend Ian from St Johns Church joined us for our Easter Celebration assembly. We looked at the Easter Story and how sometimes the impossible can happen. Easter is a sign of new life and new hope and that we should rejoice in the lessons Jesus taught us.
Happy Easter!
Last week’s attendance was amazing!

4 Red had an excellent day on Thursday, when they had a visit from Williby Roc’s. We went into the garden to help plant some trees. We made bee bombs to encourage more wildlife into our garden and we even had time for a scavenger hunt.
The children in Year 4 have really enjoyed learning through song this term. Listen to them sing their French number song to 21. très bien Year 4 !
We had a lovely afternoon helping out with the garden area. We planted some plants, made wild flower bombs, went on a scavenger hunt and collected lots of natural resources.
This week in Music, we have been learning about notation. We learned the technical names for the notation and how many beats they are. A semibreve is 4 beats, a minim is 2 beats and a crotchet is 1 beat. In groups we created a four bar rhythm with four beats in each bar using glockenspiels and then performed it to the rest of the class. After our performances, we evaluated our compositions.
In drama this week, we discussed how school and class rules keep us safe. We came up with lots of rules that we follow in school and created a short performance to show what might happen if the rules were broken. After our performances, we thought of adjectives to describe what the school would be like if rules were always broken.
