Recently the children in Year 4 were fortunate enough to visit the KCOM Centre in Hull to attend a learning event courtesy of the Hull Children’s University. We learned lots about the history of Hull before going into the city centre to interview members of the public to ask their opinions both about Hull and the City of Culture event. Later in the day we had a guided tour of our wonderful city to visit some of the iconic landmarks which celebrate some significant and infamous ambassadors of Hull:
Sir Leo Schultz – campaigned for air-raid shelters to be built in Hull during WWII
William Wilberforce – led the campaign to abolish slavery
Charles Henry Wilson – Hull shipowner and MP for Hull West
Philip Larkin – famous poet who adopted Hull as his home city
A great day was had by all, children and staff alike, and we would like to say a big THANK YOU to Julia and everyone else who helped to make the day so special. We not only learned so much about our fantastic city but also saw so much just by taking our time to look around which we so often miss when we are in such a rush.
Our learning challenge this week was; What do we mean by hot and cold colours?
Year 2 have been investigating how to mix hot and cold colours with paint. Then they used their cold colours to paint a picture of Antarctica.
We wanted to demonstrate our knowledge and understanding of another language by writing a short introduction and description of ourselves in French. Our descriptions tell our name and age, whether we have brothers and/or sisters, what pets we have and what we like to do as well as eat!
The children in Year 3 have been learning about how to keep safe on the roads from the perspective of a pedestrian, as well as the driver of a vehicle. We will be creating some super posters very soon…watch this space to view our creations.
Some safety advice from Year 3 are:
Always find a safe place to cross.
Never run across the road – always walk.
Use your Green Cross Code -STOP, LOOK, LISTEN AND THINK!
Never drive when you are tired.
Look where you are going – do not get distracted.
Keep your eyes on the road and your hands on the wheel.
Today the children in Year 4 sang Happy Birthday in French to one of their class mates.
