Year 4 'Talking Rubbish!', by Mrs Hover
Date: 4th Oct 2017 @ 6:48pm
We all learnt lots today with our safari rangers from Chester Zoo. After a chat sharing what we knew about 'rubbish', we worked in groups to decide which objects belong in the sea and which objects don't. We looked at biodegradable and non-biodegradable objects and then attempted to order the objects based on how long they take to break down. We discussed how our rubbish can be dangerous to animals and finally, we learnt what we could do to help - Recycle, Reuse, Reduce. The children then enjoyed asking many good questions about today's workshop and the animals at Chester Zoo.
Next week we are going to look at the website http://clearplasticuk.net

Year 4 Roman Bread!, by Mrs Hover
Date: 10th Jul 2017 @ 8:20pm
D&T Day
Year 4 had great fun today researching different types of bread, tasting bread, watching film clips about the different ingredients and the history of bread and most importantly, making bread!
Some of the children dipped their bread in olive oil like the Romans and some were brave enough to try 'Mixtura cum caseo', a dip with leek, lettuce, rocket, coriander, mint, white wine vinegar, parmesan and feta cheese and olive oil! A few children even liked it!!
We also had a 'Food Hygiene' quiz and we had three winning teams, 'The Quirky Croissants', 'Five Plaited Loaf' and 'The Baking Bros'! The other two teams were only one point behind.
Well done Year 4!

Year 4 Mysterious objects..., by Mrs Hover
Date: 11th May 2017 @ 3:59pm
Our first lesson on 'The Water Horse'
Mysterious objects have been handed in to Gairloch Heritage Centre and they have sent a letter and photographs to Year 4 to observe. Using magnifying glasses and a little imagination, Year 4 described the objects and predicted what the objects might be.
The letter also revealed that one of their fellow volunteers has likened these objects to the legend of the kelpie… This has got us thinking!
