News From Class 4
Class 4 is made up of the oldest children: 31 Y5 (aged 10) and Y6 (aged 11)
children. Their teacher is Mrs Johnstone and their teaching assistant is Mrs
Dalton. This year they have had an interactive whiteboard fitted to their
classroom and the make over continued with new furniture - tables and green
chairs.
Each term classes take an assembly for parents; here is Class 4's report.
Class 4 assembly - by Hannah Giles and Katie Luton
Our assembly was about playground buddies. There were five groups of children who showed how playground buddies help you if you have a problem.
The first group was about sharing. The second group showed that being different doesn't matter. The third group was about name calling. The fourth group was about bullying and the last group was to do with loneliness. Everyone had a great time.
By the end of the assembly the rest of the school had a better idea of what buddies did and how important they are.
Year 6 children take it in turns to be buddies in the playground. Their assembly put a humorous slant on their involvement in school, but the role they undertake is a serious one: helping them to develop their own skills as well as supporting others. They initiate play and help solve simple problems. Buddies always refer difficult situations to adults.
Class 4 look forward to their residential trip to North Norfolk in June. They will spend 4 nights away, learning about the coast and getting muddy wading across Blakeney marsh. Who knows - maybe they will be able to take a dip in the ocean.
