Friday 14th February

The half term has come to an end with a celebration of reading. A fantastic week started with a visit from Jo at AS Creatives, who helped the children to solve a crime. This was followed by Mr Lally on Tuesday who talked to the children about the importance of reading in his job. He then lead the children through a mock trial using the story of Goldilocks and the three bears. On Wednesday, Author Damian Harvey spoke to the children about his favourite stories and where his inspiration for writing comes from. The children loved dressing up to the theme of journeys on Thursday, before Mrs Finan lead the children in a poetry session. Finally, we celebrated reading and all the special activities that the children have experienced this week!

The children finished their dance this week and then performed to an audience. It was absolutely superb, and the number of sequences and actions they had to remember was mightily impressive! A short clip will be uploaded to this part of the page in the next few days.

Year 4 also had a visit from the Stockport road safety team, who demonstrated the importance of wearing a helmet when riding a bike.
