Hello Friends in Argentina

Year 4 have been working on a presentation to share with pupils at St Hilda's College in Argentina.
It tells them about our school and locality. Click here to see the presentation.

We have also written emails to them with information about ourselves and questions for them to answer.

We hope to get some responses while we are on half term...

During half term we would like  you to create a poster or leaflet full of information about Argentina/South America. We are focusing on handwriting and presentation in Year 4 at the moment so please try to do this by hand.

You have also received a letter about Postcard Pandemonium from Mrs Butcher.

Have a wonderful half term.

Chocolate Facts!

We have begun our new IPC unit this week on 'Chocolate'.
Mr Willy Wonka burst into our English lesson after losing his way to his chocolate factory.

This week's Weekend Challenge is to find out some facts about chocolate. Please think about presenting your facts in an imaginative way and ensure it is not something we have already found out ie: The most expensive/cheapest chocolate bar in your local shop or the most popular chocolate bar in you family and why.
The  most interesting facts will be chosen to go onto a Golden Ticket.

Can you think of an exciting story which incorporates all of your spelling words from this week? You can use your LCWC books to record this.


Also, we are finding out about the history of our school and the surrounding area.
Here are some ideas to extend your knowledge on this topic:

• Research famous local historical figures other than Sir Francis Drake
• What did Tavistock look like years ago?
• Has our school always been a school?
