We are loving our Eastern Europe topic currently in Geography and the children are working flat out. Today, we studied the causes of the Chernobyl Disaster and looked at the after effects. I was really impressed by both the geographical vocabulary that the children used and their maturity when discussing the delicate subject matter.

This afternoon, we were lucky enough to have a presentation all about Finland for European Day of Languages presented to us by Theo. He had clearly spent a lot of time and effort putting it together and it was a privilege to present it to the other children for him. We learnt about Finnish food, Finnish schooling and the Northern Lights. We are going to focus a little bit more on the Northern Lights on Friday and produce some artwork to go with it!

We had so much fun this afternoon Computing. We created Vector drawings using shapes and then editing them. The children really enjoyed it and learnt some new skills that we can continue in this unit.

We had a great first session of Board Games club today at lunch. If any Y4 children would like to come and join us, they are more than welcome to as there is some spare spaces. Please can they come and visit me and I will explain how it all works to them.

Today in Science, we investigated Gravity using different balls and flour. It was organised chaos but great fun and we all learnt so much!
