Year 4 had a fantastic Roman day with Centurion Titus. They completed a Roman soldier Boot Camp, created mosaics and practised using Roman numerals. We look forward to learning more about the Romans in our history topic for the rest of this term.

Year 4 – Jabberwocky Art
Year 4 have been completing art work in response to the poem “The Jabberwocky” by Lewis Carroll. They used charcoal, graphite, pencil and water colours. Our finished final pieces are displayed in the corridor and the classrooms.
Writing in Year 6
Year 6 have been exploring Shaun Tan’s graphic novel, ‘The Arrival’. The children have loved discussing the running themes of tolerance, respect and migration. We have had some really insightful conversations about these themes and have related them to the world we live in today.
We unpicked this famous quote by Tan:
‘Even the most anonymous character, in the strangest situation, is familiar to us if we are allowed to know his feelings, and so be invited to walk for a moment in his shoes’
We can’t wait to read the children’s informal letters this week, watch this space!
