Wednesday 3rd feb 2016


As always, great swimming and some more super successes! Well done to Natalya and Callum who swam 25m today - super achievement!!!!! We also moved the groups around and one group that used to swim down the shallow end are now swimming lengths! Very impressive - I am proud of all of you - I bet you will sleep well tonight!? There were even children attempting tumble turns and dives! I heard that Sam and Fen did extremely well at a swimming competition on Saturday, sporting several ribbons and personal best times!

In literacy this week we have been composing sonnets inspired by Shakespeare's Sonnet 18! We have learned about stanzas, his specific rhyming structure, iambic pentameter and rhyming couplets!!!!!! Wow!!!!!!!

We have been doing a strategy check in numeracy - testing our ability to move between different operations accurately, consolidating our preferred methods of calculating!

Those of you taking part in The Dorset Pentathlete Novice Biathlon this Sunday, I will give you the details tomorrow so that you get there in time for registration - I am very excited about this event - a sport I spend a lot of my time watching!!!!!!!!

Please could everyone have a look at home for a mysterious missing pair of maroon coloured girls trainers about a size 1 - they were not in any PE bags yesterday so please could you have a quick look at home, thank you!

We are having an ECO week 2 weeks after half term with lots of exciting things planned - please could each child bring in a clean, clear large plastic bottle (coke, lemonade type) with the lid on, thank you!


Sleep well!

The Year 4 Team
