Team Y3/4 were so proud of the lovely way in which the children applauded winners from other schools. Imagine our delight when we discovered a CPPS sibling had won the top prize in the attendance prize draw! With @VikingFM @Hullccnews @HumberEdTrust

A fabulous WW2 visit to Hull Museums

We explored artefacts in the Streetlife museum, looking for items from during the war in our self guided session. We sketched some of the items that really caught our eye!

We then met Mary, she was our evacuation officer. She met us at the station, dressed us, talked about what we should expect and helped us pack a suitcase. We handled historical artefacts and discussed what the children did with them or needed them for. It was a bit of a shock to us what little they had packed! Once aboard the bus we had a tongue and hand check- luckily we were all in good health. 😝 We sang ten green bottles to entertain ourselves on the long journey to the countryside and some of us even fell asleep!

A fabulous class photo in front of the giant map down Whitefriargate. This is where the People’s Memorial Museum is- all about WW1 and WW2 and well worth a visit. The volunteers there were so knowledgable and helpful, they made us very welcome.

Being Historians

In Y3/4 we are being historians, applying our maths skills to order the many events of WW2 in our humongous timeline. we then focused in on key events which led to major developments within the war.

Fantastic team work, research and questions raised by our super Historians.

 

Violin Lessons in Year Four

This term, the Year Four pupils are lucky to have a visiting specialist Violin teacher, Mr Lynch. As well as teaching us the basics of the violin he is teaching us about genres of music and widening our knowledge of instruments.

This week we were exploring the different  sounds that the violin could make – noisy and great fun 🎼🎻

Outdoor and adventurous PE

🌤🌤🌤🌤🌤

Y4 were grateful that there was a break from the rain today so we could complete the next session of our outdoor and adventurous PE unit. We used early orienteering skills with a map of the school to find anagrams hidden around the site. We then used our team work skills to solve some of them but they were “Pretty hard!”

Another challenge risen to, well done Year 4!

 

 

Training with Hull FC

Last night we were invited to a special training evening for all Hull FC Foundation’s partner schools: an evening training with Hull FC’s first team. Lots of Hull’s players were there to host all huge range of fun, but tough activities. Children were put through their paces in a host of different skills. Thanks for an amazing evening – the children really enjoyed themselves!
