It is has been a lovely and varied last full week in our class. On Monday we had a real treat! We were transported to the world of Mary Poppins by our Year 5 and 6 children. It was an excellent performance and children were mesmerised!
We have started and nearly finished our Science topic about light - learning all about what darkness is, about light sources and on Thursday we conducted a shadow study (when the clouds had dissipated!) Next week, the children will make a shadow puppet theatre!
In maths, we have persevered with fractions to the very end! Children now have such great ‘fraction sense!’ The beauty of it is that Mr. Cornwell has been in lessons and can see exactly where to take them next year with it!
In English, we have continued with our story and children have written a description of Gudrun, the evil witch - she is very scary!
In PE on Wednesday we had a VERY competitive whole class rounders game (especially between Mrs Lyons and Mrs Mather!) We have a brilliant class of batters - there were some flyers!
I am sure you will agree, Thursday’s recorder concert was special. The children have worked so hard in these lessons - as in all lessons and it showed. It is exciting that they get to continue these skills on the clarinet next year.
RHE
We had our final Kidsafe lesson of the year, where children recapped all the safety messages from earlier sessions. KS our monkey was lucky to receive hugs or high fives at the end. The children love these sessions and the same messages will be repeated to them each year in school.
The final worship of the year was led by the children above. It was all about love and children reflected on the Crucifixion of Jesus - this great sacrifice. Again, it was so reverent and helped us all think deeply. Well done!
Let’s Celebrate
This week our certificate winners were:
Georgia who received a Bobby Bee certificate for full participation and lots of excitement for her learning.
Harvey, who received a Tommy Turtle certificate for being a brave learner and having a go at things which challenge him. Well done!

TT ROCKSTARS GIGS COMPLETED THIS WEEK
FRANEK - well done! Let’s see how many others can achieve this over Summer! Go for it!

Please have a good search in bedrooms etc for any school reading books so we can return them to our library ready for next year.

I am bracing myself emotionally to say goodbye to this wonderful class of children next week. We will really miss them in year 4 . They are such a special group of children - hardworking, kind, thoughtful and such good friends. They will thrive in Year 5!
Have a lovely weekend - and please tell your children how utterly proud we are of them!
Mrs Lyons, Mrs Mather and Mr Cornwell.
