RE Festival Workshop- Ganesh Chaturthi

 Today Year 4 had their first RE festival workshop! They thought about how birthdays are celebrated and then learnt about how some Hindu's celebrate the birthday of the elephant-headed God Ganesh. We noticed some similarities and lots of differences.  We had a go at drawing at making a model of the God Ganesh out of playdoh. We had great fun! 









Well done to Oakley and Eva who had a go at drawing Ganesh too.

Christmas Production

  Music This week, year 4 took a break from their space topic  in music to look at something very exciting... BAH HUMBUG! Yes, I know it's only September, but in music we have already started looking at our Christmas production for December. The children enjoyed sharing what they already know about the traditional A Christmas Carol or any Scrooge adaptations that they have either read or watched.  Next, we spent our time listening to the songs that they will need to know by December. We even started learning one of them, so I apologise if they have come home singing Bah Humbug already.  More information to follow in the next few weeks about the Christmas production!
