Welcome to Year 4/5 2024-2025 

Spring Term

PE

In PE, two of the three classes had a fantastic time learning how to play netball. At the end of the unit, the children took part in some competitive netball games against each other, applying what  they had learnt.

Art

Before the Easter break, the pupils looked at the work of Keith Melling, and attempted to recreate something in the same style as him. Oil pastels were used do this.

Greek Vases

In art, the children had lots of fun making Ancient Greek vases. This was linked to the year group's history topic of Ancient Greece.

Ancient Greek Day

The year group were lucky enough to spend the day looking at the lives of the Ancient Greeks. They all dressed up and experienced how life was in two different Ancient Greek cities. 

Bikeability

Some of the year group have completed a level 2 in Bikeability. Bikeability is the government's national cycle training scheme. It teaches children to cycle safely.

Autumn Term

3-D Christmas Cards 

As part of our design technology for this year, all the children had to make a Christmas card that was 3-D, as well as a calendar for the new year. 

Textiles

Across the three year 4 & 5 classes, we have made Christmas themed cushions. We followed the design, make and evaluate process as it was a design technology unit.

PE

In 4/5Y, the children have started learning about different Bollywood dance moves.

Music

In 4/5X, the children have started to learn an instrument. They are really enjoying learning one of the following: a flute, a clarinet or a saxophone.

Outdoor Learning

In 4/5Z, they have started their forest school journey, using the outdoor learning area.
