Year 4 R.E. Christingle
Year 4 had Rev Kev visit them to talk about Christingle, as part of our R.E. curriculum. After learning about the symbolism of the Christingle, Year 4 were honoured to be of assistance and help make 70 Christingles for the Church, which were used in service this past Sunday. We were also lucky enough to make one for ourselves!

Year 4 Computing - Animation
Year 4 have enjoyed their Computing lessons, looking at the concept of animation during this topic. The children have worked hard to follow their story-map planning to create their own moving animation, complete with sound effects and drawn backgrounds, each one telling a different story, or giving different information for others. We enjoyed watching them all together and were impressed by everyone's efforts!
Year 4 D.T. - Making Biscuits
Year 4 were ecstatic this week, when the day finally came to put all of their D.T. learning and planning to the test by making their own biscuits! It was a fantastic team effort by all, helping each other mix and stir the ingredients to create a suitable dough, ready to roll and cut out the biscuits before baking. We just need to decorate them and eat them now!
School Council- PSHE- Spreading Christmas Cheer in the Community
Our school council members took on a wonderfully heartwarming project this week by organizing and performing a special nativity play exclusively for the residents of a local nursing home. The pupils demonstrated incredible dedication, rehearsing their roles as Mary, Joseph, shepherds, and angels to bring the traditional story to life. The performance was met with warm applause and generated a tangible sense of festive cheer among the residents, providing a lovely inter-generational connection. Following the play, the children personally greeted the residents, shared handmade cards, and offered sincere wishes for a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year, reinforcing the school's commitment to community spirit and kindness during the holiday season.

Year 4 have enjoyed decorating their angels for a whole-school piece of artwork, to be used by Church. We cannot wait to see what the completed piece will look like!
Year 4 Communion
On Tuesday, Year 4 spent part of the morning at Church, receiving Communion. The children worked hard to think of their own prayers, which were then read out to the congregation by them, including two readers who read a passage from the Bible. Rev Kev and the other adults were extremely impressed with Year 4's efforts, well done for a lovely service and time had by all.
