In March, 4th class participated in Science Blast. We worked very hard in the weeks leading up to the big event. Our question was ‘Can we slow down gravity?’. We investigated this by creating marble runs with different surfaces to either increase or decrease friction. We raced the marbles and found that we could slow down gravity. The bubble wrap surface added the most friction and slowed down gravity the most. We had a great day out looking at the other projects, visiting the stands and watching the exciting shows!

Every Friday, our 4th Class enjoy special DEAR (Drop Everything And Read) time in the school library. The children love getting cosy with a good book, finding a comfy spot, and losing themselves in a story. There’s always great excitement as everyone settles in to enjoy some quiet reading time together! 📚✨

We had a lovely morning in Richmond Library today. We did a scavenger hunt for books and had time to browse some new titles. We have the forms to join the library in school available to take home for your child to become a member. You can borrow books, DVDs and games for your Nintendo switch, X-Box and PlayStation when you’re a member!

Today Mr. Moriarty's 4th class performed their Christmas play 'The Case of the Missing Christmas Star'. They have been working so hard on it over the past few weeks; learning their lines, making props and costumes, and rehearsing. It was great to perform it in front of the other classes, parents, and family. A few pupils felt nervous but said working with their friends and taking a deep breath and reminding themselves to relax helped them get through it. Each and every one of them should be so proud of themselves!
