Leaf art!

As a school, we have entered an art competition called the ”Big Draw’. Each year group has a different theme and task to do for the competition.

Year 4 have been asked to use leaves and any other autumnal treasures (acorns etc). We will be using them at some point in the next week or so for the competition.

We are therefore asking if you could send some leaves your children may pick up when they are outdoors and any other autumnal treasures they find. If they could be brought into school by Friday 13th October that would be really helpful for our entry! It also gives the leaves the time to dry out so we can complete the task set.

Thank you in advance,

The Year 4 Team

Painting a Scene from a Myth in Art!

Year 4 have had an extremely busy day… all of the children at school spent some of the morning looking at Roman Art as part of our art topic. We looked at how Roman myths have been painted in the past to show a particular ‘scene’. We looked in particular at the story of ‘Echo and Narcissus’ and painted a scene from this Roman Myth.

The children sketched first using a variety of techniques before finishing the piece of art using the watercolours.

An amazing morning!

WORLD MENTAL HEALTH DAY!

Today is World Mental Health Day! The theme of the day is ‘Mental Health is a Universal Human Right’.

We spent some of this afternoon talking about mental health and what it means. We also decided ways we could look after our mental health in the future! From this, we have created some mental health themed bunting that will be stuck in the classroom. Some of them have ideas to help when we may feel we need it and others are positive comments (like an affirmation). Year 4 have had a brilliant day!

#HELLOWYELLOW in Year 4!

Well done to year 4 for wearing a yellow item of clothing in support of World Mental Health Day!
