Our first steps in fundraising!

Parents and friends of the school will know that we are in the process of raising funds for a new a project on reading. I'm lucky enough to be working with an amazing group of parents who have offered their help in many ways and on Friday we had our first event. We had donations of cakes and biscuits from parents which were then sold in the library with tea. The tea will become more popular as the winter sets in I think! :) 
They then sold these with the books that were kindly donated at the end of the year, this will be a regular event so don't worry if you missed out! It was also lovely spending some time chatting to the parents and children outside of the classroom!
So you may be wondering where your money will be going,as a group we have set out the phases of spending to improve our library. First bit will be to update the books! If you want to know more about this project or if you think you can help in any way then let me know!
I'll update you with how much we managed to raise once we're back.

Have a fantastic half term everyone!

Anna&Rhiannon's Post on dogs

Hi I'm Rhiannon my favourite  breed of dog is Pug. Hi I'm Anna and my favourite breed of dog is a West Highland Terrier. Now that's enough about us, and let's start talking about dogs! There's lots of breeds of dogs such as a Jack Russell, a West Highland Terrier and a Pug. Dogs can be pets and they can be wild. People say dogs are man's best friend! That's why we chose to do a post on them! Dogs are mammals. They are omnivores which means they eat everything that is edible for them. Sometimes they can be tiny, sometimes huge and sometimes they can be somewhere in the middle. Dogs can woof, growl or whimper. That is all we know about dogs.

Book fair thanks!

We haven't added up the total of money raised from the book fair yet but I just wanted to say a huge thank you to all the children and parents who supported this. We are at a really exciting stage with the development of our reading and this will give us the kick start we need to update the books we have in school.
Again I can't thank you enough for this week and as soon as I know how much we have to spend on books I'll put it up here.

Eid mubarak!

Eid is a celebration that Muslims celebrate. It happens twice a year and Muslims get presents and pray in a mosque in the morning for an hour or so. Every year it happens a different date. There is Eid al fitr and Eid al udha. The whole family come over and open presents and play. We eat food such as dates,Somosas and roty. Every year I go to my nana's house my cousins come as well.

I can't wait until EID!



We've got some very creative children in year 4!

We have been blown away by some of the amazing pieces of homework coming in! 
In this piece we have a fantastic model of the pyramids of Giza,they were cut out of card and then glued with sand.
Not only this but she also made us a menu and crossword to test our knowledge!



Then we have a beautiful model of an Egyptian boat,this was made out of card and then carefully painted.

We then have a model of one of the pyramids,this has bern carefully cut so you can see all the steps and then painted. It looks amazing!

Well done year 4 on these amazing pieces of homework! You have worked extremely hard on these!
