Y4H Learning Journey 2013-2014 - the original year group learning journey!
The Last Day in Y4H
So 18th July 2014 was the last day of Y4H, it has been a super year. The children and staff have worked incredibly hard but had a lot of fun too. Our last day together was a great example of everyone enjoying our time together.
Thanks to everyone for their support and generosity this year, including all the wonderful gifts I received at the end of term. Enjoy the summer and come and see us in Year 5 next year.

Y4H Special Days for Gambian School and Eco Art
Y4H Special Days Book for Gambian School
As part of Dore Primary Schools link with Jamisa Lower Basic School in the Gambia we prepared a book about our personal Special Days: Holidays, Religious festivals, Birthdays, starting school, new arrivals and family occasions and lots of other significant memories. It is a wonderful collection, read it here: Y4H Special Days Book for Gambian School.
Eco Art
We are very grateful to Mr Goodwin for organising an Eco Art afternoon for the whole school on the last Thursday of term. Y4H, and everyone else, had a fantastic time creating individual pieces using just natural materials from the school grounds and homes.
Y4 Book Club Final Meeting
Exquisite Corpses in Y4!(or how to spend your lunch break in Book Club!) We had our final Book Club meeting on Wednesday this week and it was very special, here is the amazing surreal poem the children created:
We then enjoyed, Michael Rosen's inspirational chocolate cake, followed by real cakes! Many thanks to Karine Zbinden for her cakes and support throughout the year! |
Tudor Dance
We have been lucky in Year 4 to have expert dance tuition from Miss Fiona. She has been working on a fantastic Tudor Dance that we presented today. First the dancers were introduced to the King and Queen and then the formal dance began. Imagine, like the children did, the stiff ruffs, breeches, dresses and other formal Tudor clothing!
Maths Day Summer 2014
Build It - Problem-solving Fun Day at Kelham Island Museum
On Monday 9th June, 10 Year 4 children traveled on the bus to Kelham Island Museum to take part in a problem-solving fun day called Build It! It was a fabulous day, the children worked incredibly well as a team to build there projects:
- A Commonwealth Health Centre
- A Fairground ride
- A mode of transport
An interesting element to the day was that we had 14 tokens to purchase significant items for the models. This meant the children had to plan their work carefully and not be too elaborate!
Send My Friend to School
In preparation for the International Evening tonight, Y4H have been thinking about the need to Send ALL My Friends to School. We created buddies, some with disabilities, that will be sent to our local MP to help ensure everyone gets the education they deserve. Some of the messages the children wrote include:

Sports Day 2014
As you can see from the main news page, Sports Day 2014 was another huge success. I wanted to share a photo of Y4H, who looked great in their bright T-Shirts. Everyone in the class agreed it was a super day. |
