Year 4 goes Down Under ... 1300m underground (Queensland,Australia)

31/3/2021

 

Friday 26th March / Vendredi 26 mars

26/3/2021

 
Year 4 was excited to receive a journal in the post this week! The journal started it's journey at a Primary School in Rieux in Northern France in December and then it was sent to Paris​ and then on to 4 other schools and then it was sent over the 'pond' to Santa Barbara (USA), and then to us! (It has been quarantined each stop as per instructions).  The idea being, as no one was travelling, the journal could travel for the children, collecting experiences.
We were thrilled to contribute to it too. We wrote about what we liked about school, our hobbies and our lockdown experiences.  We sent  information about South Zeal, Cosdon and the Triple Row.  Miss Chalcraft gave the teachers our school address so we hope to start writing to each other. So exciting! Next time we will write in French ... peut être!

Comic Relief; Super end of the week!

19/3/2021

 
Yet another super dooper week of learning in Year 4. We have been learning about the First Fleet and what you had to do to become a convict on board a ship heading to Australia! We found out that petty felonies like stealing an apple or a pig to feed your family family was a 'just crime' back in those days, which justified being sent on board one of the ships to the new colonies.  In DT, we have started building HMS Charlotte, one of the convict ships of the First Fleet of 11 ships lead by Captain Arthur Phillip.  
​
As it was dry, we decided this was the best way to show case our Comic Relief Colours :)

Have a super weekend, 
Miss Chalcraft, Mrs While and Miss Bennett

For your info:
​Charlotte, 
one of the ‘two ladies’ of the fleet, was built on the River Thames in 1784 as a three masted, two-decker, barque built ship, weighing 345 tons. Charlotte was chartered by the Admiralty from its owner Mr Matthews late in 1786.  She was fixed out at Deptford, one of the royal dockyards established to build, repair and victual ships of the Royal Navy.  Her master for the voyage to Botany Bay was Captain Thomas Gilbert.
Charlotte carried 88 male convicts and 20 female, among them were Thomas Akers, James Squire, James Bloodworth, James Underwood, Samuel Lightfoot and the later-to-be-famous Mary Bryant.   Described as a light or slow sailor Charlotte had her fair share of accidents through rough winds and collisions of others ships.

Spring 2nd Half - Science Fun in year 4

12/3/2021

 
So wonderful to see everyone back and looking so happy and very TALL after all that lockdown growing! As this week is Science week, we have explored what makes a good structure. Check out how we did below and also the superb marble run video in slow motion at the bottom of this page.  These activities promoted team work, listening, turn taking and trouble shooting as well as the science behind which structure is stable and why.  So much fun!

 What a super arty week! We are very excited to be seeing everyone on Monday 8th! Have a super weekend, 
 MIss Chalcraft, Miss Bennett and Mrs White
