We had so much fun when our learning came to life during our ‘Now Press Play’ experience. We got to listen to rainforest and volcano stories!

This week, our Collective Worship theme was Fairness. We discussed what fairness meant to us and recorded it in our Philosophy Book.

We used different mediums, including chalk pastels, watercolours and paint, to create some amazing abstract art.

In PE this week, we have been focusing on developing our hockey skills. We learned how to hold a hockey stick correctly, how to pass the ball, control then receive it. Great effort Chestnut Class!

This week, our spiritual leaders awarded these children with certificates for showing our core values of kindness, friendship and respect. You should be very proud of yourselves! 🌟

Our challenge in Forest Schools was to make a volcano erupt! We built volcanoes using natural resources and added Mentos to Coke to create the eruption.

We had so much fun during our spelling lesson today, drawing pictures and making actions to help us remember the meaning of different homophones!

The Land of Roar continues to inspire and bring excitement to Chestnut Class as this week we have been sketching dragon eyes. They are beautifully detailed and we can’t wait to create our designs using clay!

We have loved learning about how to survive in the Amazon Rainforest and have found Bear’s tips very useful!

Today, during Forest Schools, Year 4 were given the challenge of designing a shelter that could keep Bear (a miniature version!) warm, dry and safe. Brilliant team work was demonstrated and everyone made effective use of the available resources, well done Chestnuts!
