FANTASTIC DAY HAD BY ALL!!
Holy Trinity’s year 4’s had a fantastic day out when they visited the International Eisteddfod in Llangollen on Children’s Day.
They went into the main tent and watched performances from numerous groups including an East Indian Choir and a Malaysian Dancing Group. Throughout the day they took part in a dancing workshop, circus skills and met the local police who did some fantastic finger print activities with the children.
The children had a fantastic time and many were inspired by the music and performances they saw and took part in.
Following on from our Inspire Morning, the children were able to re-enact a soldier battle scene. The children practiced using Roman army formations such as the Testudo.
Can I say a big thank you to all the parents and carers who supported us for our Roman Inspire Day. The morning was a huge success and the children had a fantastic time.
The morning started by cutting up card to create swords, shields and armour. The children then painted their shields with their own motifs, following original Roman designs.
A FANTASTIC MORNING HAD BY ALL!!
Grinshill class are currently studying drama and playscripts and have been acting out parts of William Shakespeare’s Macbeth. The children have also been empathising with characters within the play and have considered Macbeth’s struggles with his morality throughout the story. They have really enjoyed carrying out a Conscience Alley where they have tried to persuade Macbeth when he is given a choice in the story.
This half-term the year fives are studying Forces in Science. Currently, our year fives are carrying out an investigation into air resistance. They have discussed and chosen different materials they could use to produce parachutes and how to make it a fair test. They have also written predictions and are enjoying testing their parachutes.
The year fours are looking at States of Matter in Science this half-term. They have been carrying out an investigation into gases this week and have been deciding whether gas is weightless.
