This year, the children have been working really hard learning how to successfully edit and improve their own work. They got to show off these skills this week when editing and publishing their non-chronological reports in our English lessons.

In maths, we thought about when in our lives we would need to be able to read a timetable (School, to catch public transport, for our camping experience!) and we applied our time skills to help us read timetables and find the duration of events using a number line.

On Friday, the children spent all day in their new classes – we hope they had a great transition day and got to know their new teachers a little better – we certainly enjoyed our time with our new classes and are looking forward to next year.

Last but definitely not least, it was our Year 4 camping experience Friday night. All children and staff involved had a fantastic night camping on the school field. They did team building, scavenger hunts, nature art and den building as well as having free time to spend in their tents, with their friends and playing sport. After all that fun, we had some down time, singing songs and toasting marshmallows before a bed time story. Thank you to everyone who lent us a tent, to the staff who gave up their Friday evening and to the children for being so well behaved and really embracing the camping lifestyle – we had a super time and the winners of the ‘Best kept’ tent award will be announced shortly!
