Roman Day
Our Roman Day was an unforgettable journey back in time! We were excited to welcome a Roman visitor who brought history to life, sharing fascinating stories and answering all our questions about ancient Rome.
The day was packed with exciting activities, from recreating gladiator fights to investigating real Roman artefacts. We explored Roman clothing, weaponry and everyday objects to gain a deeper understanding of this time in history.
Together, we discussed everything we learned, bringing the world of ancient Rome into our classroom. It was a day of fun, discovery and unforgettable memories.




We also created stunning poppy water colours inspired by the poem "In Flanders Field", a WW1 poem written by John Macrae , a Canadian soldier.

Fire Safety.
Today, member of the Fire Safety Team from Sunderland and South Shields Fire Brigade came in to speak to Year 4 about the importance of keeping our home and devices safe. They gave us valuable advice on how to avoid fires and what to do in the case of an emergency.
Aaaarrgghh ! Spiders by Lydia Monks.
Inspired by the story "Aaaarrgghh Spider!" by Lydia Monks, we learnt the valuable lesson that you should "never judge a book by its cover"! Spiders are amazing creatures and during our exploration we discovered that spiders are our friends.
Inspired by the story we wrote in the role as the Spider, writing a thought bubble about what the spider would be thinking throughout the story.
We also created colourful information leaflets about spiders. These posters are filled with creepy, fascinating facts designed to teach others all about these amazing creatures, helping to unravel some common fears!
