Hello everyone,

We hope you are well and enjoying the sun.

As part of our food technology unit in DT, the children were lucky to take part in a work shop held by UK Harvest which are a fantastic charity that focus on reducing food waste! During the workshop the pupils were challenged with the task of creating a healthy pizza using rescued vegetables and ingredients. They needed to knead, spread, measure and prepare their ingredients.

Once ready, they were able to watch their healthy pizzas cook and create their pizza boxes that had a clear message “Stop wasting food!”

We have had a fun packed week with Sports Day, food workshop and carnival on Friday so keep an eye out for more photos to come!

A few polite reminders –

• Please send your child into school on Friday wearing Australian themed clothes. Also if your child has Australian animals or pool inflatables then they would look great in the parade!
• Homework is due on Friday 1st July 2022.
• Year 4 overnight camping stay is on Friday 1st July 2022. If you are able to provide a tent, please could you let any of the year 4 team know. If you are bringing a tent for your child to share, please come and help pitch up from 7.30-8.30 on Friday morning.

Have a lovely weekend,

Miss Jackson-Nash, Miss Honeywell, Miss Ranson and Mrs Woolston

Hi there,

We hope that you are all enjoying the glorious weather!

This week, as a nice treat after all of the children’s hard work for their Y4 multiplication checks, we went on a trip to Gunwharf and Old Portsmouth! This supported the children’s learning on their local Geography study, as well as their DT knowledge of measuring and preparing a healthy main meal. We also saw many important sites and landmarks whilst exploring – the Spinnaker Tower, Lipstick building, Hot Walls, Square Tower, Garrison’s church, Historic monuments of Portsmouth, as well as being lucky enough to take part in a guided tour around Portsmouth cathedral!

The children had a fantastic time – please take a look at our photos below. For those who haven’t already, please return your child’s camping slip as soon as possible, selecting one option from each of the food/drink lists to indicate which choices your child would like for their evening meal at camping.

Have a great weekend and we look forward to seeing you all again on Monday,

Miss Honeywell, Miss Jackson-Nash, Mrs Woolston and Miss Ranson.

Hello everyone,

We hope you had a wonderful half term and enjoyed all the jubilee celebrations!

This week the children have drafted, edited and performed their news report about the disastrous Kilauea volcano eruption. Here the children needed to consider their tone, pitch, eye contact and formal word choices.

A few polite reminders,

• Thank you for all your support with multiplication practise at home. The children will be sitting their multiplication test on Friday and we are very confident that they will all do well.
• Please send your child into school wearing PE kits on Monday 13th June 2022.
• Please send your child into school with the correct school uniform and a packed lunch (unless your child receives free school meals) for their trip to Wagamama. 4JN will be going on Tuesday 14th June, 4H will be going on Wednesday 15th June 2022.

We hope you have a wonderful week,

Miss Jackson-Nash, Miss Honeywell, Miss Ranson and Mrs Woolston
