Play in a Day 24.2.2020
On Monday 24th February, Class 4 enjoyed working with Lisa from the Lynx Theatre Company to perform a 'Play in a Day'. Firstly, they played various warm games across a circle to practise vocal skills and accentuate their actions. After playtime, the children started working on their play, 'It's Not Fair', based around the history of the Olympic Games. There was no script for them to refer to, they had to rely on their memory and concentration. Everyone had a part to play in the final production, which was performed to parents and class 3. A great day was had by all.

Contours
We have been learning about mountains in our geography topic this half term. We used potatoes to help us understand what contours for hills and mountains would like on an OS map. We also created colour contour collages to see what hills and mountains would look like on a physical topography map.

This half term, Class 4 are being coached football by Connor Cooke. Our first session developed skills in keeping control of the ball using the top, bottom and sides of both of our feet. We finished off with a small game where the children had to try and gain possession of the ball and then score.
Next half term, Connor will be running an after school football club for junior children so look out for more details coming soon.
Canoeing on Derwent Water 15.7.2019
As an end of term outdoor and adventurous experience, Class 4 went to Plattyplus, Derwent Water to try out canoeing. Two canoes were strapped together and in our teams we paddled across the lake. At various landmarks we came together to perform Mexican Waves, jumps and spins. The finale came at the end, where the children could jump into the water and be hauled back into their canoe or swim to the shore. Fabulous fun was had by all!

Year 6 Visit to Workington Magistrate's Court 5.6.2019
On Wednesday 5th June, the Year 6's had a visit to Workington Magistrate's Court to take part in a cyber bullying role play activity. Every pupil had a part to play such as giving evidence, being a court usher, a witness, magistrate, solicitor. After hearing the evidence, the magistrate decided that the defendant was guilty. An excellent and informative afternoon with plenty to think about. Many thanks to Doug and Charlotte for leading the afternoon.
Look at the Year 6's in their Leavers' Hoodies!
Cross Country Competition 23.5.2019
On Thursday 23rd May, our whole juniors went to Cockermouth School for a Cross Country competition. The Year 3 and 4 race was one lap around the field, with some excellent performances by all who took part. The Year 5 and 6's had to be put into teams - 3 boys and 3 girls per team. Their course was twice around the field, with the fastest 4 children from each team contributing to the total score. Our A Team comprising of: Holly, Poppy, Joe and Finn - proved to be the dream team. Despite one child being absent from their team, they were the winners!!! Congratulations.
Athletics Competition 16.5.2019
Another glorious Summer's afternoon, another opportunity to do sport at Cockermouth School. This time it was the Athletics Competition on Thursday 16th May. Our team: Poppy, Izzy, Rosie, Eva, Holly, Olivia, Kearon, Seth, Joe, Lynton, Edward. Cheerleader: Mrs Hemingway! They took part in a variety of throwing, jumping and running events and proved to be amazing. Once the points had been added up, we were the WINNERS! Congratulations to the team. You were superb.
Making Micro Organisms - Science
In Science we have been finding out about micro-organisms and science pioneers. The children were investigating harmful and helpful microbes. As part of this, they designed and made their own micro-organisms, giving details about the effects they have on a human body!
