Trip to Buckingham Palace

We were lucky enough to visit Buckingham Palace for a creative writing session last week. It was incredible to see inside the palace and we even got to visit areas that were off limits to the public! We walked through several of the state rooms as well as looking at a collection of toys given to the Royal Family as gifts, they were so exquisite!

The state rooms were decorated with gold and other lavish materials and some even has secret entrances!

Computing in class 4

This term in class 4 we are looking at creating our own educational game! We will be using Scratch to create and animate our games. Scratch is a great piece of software which allows us to code games and animations really easily.

We were using this website in Computing and we all learnt lots from it. We’ve posted it on the blog for you to try your hand at coding!

There’s lots of interesting videos as well from Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg, discussing their experiences with coding.

It’s easier than you think! Be warned though, it does get tough!

World Faith Week

Welcome back! We’ve had an exciting week with World Faith Week. In class 4 we’ve been learning about Hinduism. We were lucky enough to have an extra special visitor to teach us all about Hinduism. Krishna brought in loads of artifacts, costumes, paints and books for us to use and explore. We enjoyed dressing up and painting our faces, as well as reading loads of interesting books and stories. We got to share it all with year 3. What was your favourite part of the week?
