Cricket Tournament
On Thursday 12th June, Year 4 participated in the Platform Cricket Inter-School Festival in Gladstone Park. The children had taken part in Cricket lessons with one of the coaches earlier in the year which they really enjoyed and were able to really develop their skills. The children were split into teams and played many different matches against teams from other schools in Brent. We were delighted that one of our OLOG teams came second overall after putting in a fantastic game in the final! We are so proud of all of the children for showing such fantastic skills and sportsmanship throughout the whole day! A big thank you to the parents who were also able to attend to show their support to the children.
Year 4 Trip to Westminster Cathedral
The Year 4s had a fantastic trip to Westminster Cathedral for the Catholic Children's Society Christmas Carol Service. The children really enjoyed singing the songs as Angel Penelope told the story of Christmas. They were particularly excited when an actual donkey and goat arrived to take part! We also had time to get a few pictures outside Buckingham Palace which we passed on the journey. Everybody had a fantastic time. A big thank you to all of the parents and staff who were able to help.
Please follow the links below to practise the signs to these Christmas songs!
Year 4 Computing
This term we are studying digital media. We understand that media is used to communicate. Posters, newspapers, videos, adverts all communicate a message to the reader. We are using skills in cropping, zooming, rotating and colouring to edit photos for a purpose. We intend to create photos to support our History learning. While we cannot visit Ancient Greece, our editing skills will enable us to use a photo for the purpose of pretending. Additionally, we are learning a very important online safety message ie photos may not tell the correct story.
Ici on Parle Français!
This Autumn we are determined to build on our excellent learning of year 3. We have a very solid base of phonic and core language learning. We are beginning to understand the skills a linguist uses to learn. In fact, we are learning to learn a language by using listening, repetition, questions, answers and lots of language games. This term we focus on using numbers in our learning. We have made an excellent start. On y va!
