Friday 2nd July 2021

Hello everyone,

Wow, was that only one week?! It has been absolutely jam packed this week and we are certainly not slowing down anytime soon. We have another inspired to learn week ahead of us. 

Monday
This week we started the week with class photos which are available to click here to order now. 

We also had an incredible mountain bike display from Danny Butler and finished the day with a birthday party. 

Tuesday

On Tuesday the children enjoyed the annual bikeathon through the school. Thank you so much to those parents, carers, friends and family that sponsored a child. 

Wednesday

On Wednesday we celebrated Mrs Long and another sport for our inclusive sports week in the form of Darts DAY. Great fun was had by all and year 4 especially like playing darts with their buddies.  

Thursday

On Thursday those children going to Dorchester Middle school went to DMS and were able to meet their tutors outside and find out who from PoW is going to be in their class.  

In the afternoon the children did some sketching in the gardens before saying goodbye and thank you to Ms Williams.

Friday

What a way to end a week! In reverse order, 

- we had a blast at dance day, where the children showed off their moves from across the decades. 

- we had a virtual meeting with author Nigel Blackman and we listened to him read sections of his book the Dinoteks, we also found out about how he creates his books and asked some excellent questions. 

- first thing this morning the children found evidence of some strange activity at school overnight. 

There were rumours of a dragon being sighted around the school premises and the children developed theories and looked for further clues as to what was going on. We still haven't been able to conclude what has been going on but if we gain any additional information next week we will let you know...

Forthcoming Dates:

* Week beginning 5th July - Inspired writing week.   

* Monday 5th  - Who knows what surprises Monday may bring us. 

* Thursday 8th  - Sports Day years 3 & 4. This will start in the afternoon from 1.30pm - 3.10pm Please make sure children have their PE kit on Thursday and a sunhat and water bottle. Please apply sunscreen in the morning and children can apply more sunscreen at lunchtime. 

* Friday 9th - Year 4 will perform a Samba concert to the rest of the school.

* Week beginning 12th July - Creativity and Wellbeing week .

* Wednesday 14th - Year 4 roundhouse sleepover Boys 

* Thursday 15th - Year 4 roundhouse sleepover Girls

* Friday 16th - Creativity display and musical Soiree 3.30pm - 5pm. The children will perform their incredible Samba drums concert to parents. This will be at the beginning of the event (near 3.30pm) and so it would be wonderful if all children are able to stay to perform their roles in the year 4 Samba Band.  

 

If you have any questions or comments about any forthcoming events, middle school transition or any other topic, please get in touch.

Have a lovely weekend,

Ms Browne & the Year 4 Team.
