Welcome to Class 3 All Saints (Year 4)

Welcome to our class page. We hope you enjoy looking at all our hard work!

Being prepared for school each day

Children will need their waterproof coat, a bag for reading books and a packed lunch (if required). Pencil cases and other school equipment will be provided for children by school. It is important that we limit what is being brought into school, so pencil cases and other accessories from home won’t be needed.

Break and lunch times

Children have one breaktime in the morning. For this time, they are welcome to bring a healthy snack with them to eat during break.

Forest School

Forest School will take place on a Monday afternoon, on a six -week cycle. Children will need to bring in spare clothes to get changed into at lunchtime and please remember your wellies too! During the colder months we ask that your child brings a hat and gloves as they can get very cold outside.

PE

The children will have PE every Thursday.  PE kits should be left in school for the whole week as the children will sometimes take part in sporting activities at short notice. PE kits consist of Black Joggers/leggings, white t-shirt, black jumper/hoodie and a pair of trainers.

SWIMMING

Children in year 4 will go swimming on a Monday, leaving school at 9:30. Please send your child to school wearing their swimming costumes/trunks.

Class 3 all ready to go to their Christmas play.

Mark and Pam, from Glossop Book Fest, arrived at school today to update the children on the writing competition they entered. Pam and Mark said the quality of all the writing was superb. What a wonderful surprise we got! One of our children won second prize and received a £10 book token; another child got commended and received a note book and pen. Well done 👏👏👏

Gold star readers. Well done!

Silver star readers. Well done!

Bronze star readers. Well done!

Class 3 are learning about the Maya Civilisation.  We have lots of Mayan Temples – even one made from gingerbread.

Class 3 had a great time at Forest School.

Having fun in Manor Park.  It would be rude not to. 🙂

Wow!  Thank you to all our children and parents for bringing cakes into school today.  Our cake sale starts at 2pm until 4pm.  All welcome.

This clever young lady made super progress in spelling today!

Class 3 have been dissecting flowers to name the different parts and explain their role in pollination and fertilisation.

Congratulations! A well-deserved rugby medal for scoring two tries  and tackling the opposite team.

Class 3 have been busy.

Our first school pot.

Class 3 have made Easter Gardens: telling the story from the Garden of Gethsemane to the hill where Jesus was crucified and over to the tomb where he was placed. Mrs Robinson is extremely proud of everyone. The gardens will be delivered to All Saints Catholic and parish churches; local care homes and businesses.

Class 3 had a visit today from Matt from Longdendale Environmental Centre. He helped us do some practical Science work on Rocks. 🗿💎

Class 3 enjoyed Forest School today.  They made friendship bracelets, heart shaped crafts and toasted heart shaped doughnuts.

Swimming gala, We’re ready to go! Good luck everyone!

The lucky winner of the children’s chocolate hamper. Well done!

All Saints’ Chaplaincy group members have designed, written and posted Christmas Cards to neighbours, local to the school.

All Saints had a great fundraising day for Alzheimers dressing up as elves.

Class 3 children have been learning about Seasonal food in Design Technology. They had to design and create “Orchards throughout the seasons.” Here are some before and after pictures. Good job Class 3.

Class 3 had to create a football design to be used in the 2026 World Cup.
Fabulous results!

Year 4 were set a challenge today. They had to find a material to use as a reflective strip in a book bag. They carried out an experiment to determine which material reflected light well. Well done.

All the children have received a toothbrush and toothpaste from Colgate.

Look what I added up today! Gee whizzers aunt Sally! 👏👏

Class 3 have been learning that bones and muscles have to work together to create movement. Working models helped their understanding.

Bronze star readers. Well done, keep up the hard work.

During our ‘Picture News’ lessons we have been discussing famous black people who are part of history. Check out our work! We can even recite Martin Luther King’s famous speech.

Today Class3 have been colour mixing and painting in the style of Paul Cezane. We used purple, orange and brown to design animals that we have been learning about in Science.

Class 3 have been looking at the history of the Willow Pattern, and have created their own.
Well done Class 3.

Class 3 have been carrying out an investigation in Science.  Does the length of a person’s femur enable them to jump further?  Our overall conclusion with our experiment was no!

And we’re off!  Thank you so much for all your donations.  Without you the cake sale would not be possible.
Thank you.  Mrs Robinson and the Chaplaincy team.

Class 3 have been using the story of Rama and Sita to practise and improve sentence structure.

Year 4 and 5 during their music lesson yesterday.

Class 3 had a fabulous time on Friday experimenting with pattern and colour printing, using Lego.

A wonderful Motte and Bailey Castle made from cake. What a contender for Class 3’s topic challenge!

Fathers Day cards

Class 3 creating panels from the Bayeux Tapestry. They had to scrunch and stain their paper  in order to give an aged look. They then carefully copied a scene of their choice from the tapestry. How many characters from Aesop’s fables can you recognise in the borders?

Class 3 discussed their Picture News topic for the week-Who is your hero? There were some lovely comments made about their parents. Children in Class 3 consider them to be their heroes.

Some photos of Class 3’s recent D&T learning. We started this topic by looking at food pyramids and what healthy eating entails.  We then tasted and evaluated a number of sandwich fillings, both homemade and shop-bought in order to decide the types of ingredients we enjoy and  would work well together in our sandwiches.   Each child then designed, made, tasted and evaluated their own healthy sandwiches.  There were some slightly strange concoctions but we also disocvered some quite delicious food combinations.   We hope they put their skills to good use at home!

Class 3 and members of the Chaplaincy group have been delivering their Easter Gardens to Pendlebury Court and Panaderia Blue.  It would have been rude not to have a hot chocolate

Topic Challenge!  Class 3 have brought in their skyscrapers.  Well done to everyone who rose to the challenge.  They are all fantastic.  Choosing one winner will be extremely difficult.

Well it’s Easter in Class 3.
Happy Easter!

Easter Gardens

What a busy few weeks we have had learning about L.S. Lowry. We enjoyed looking at a wide range of his paintings.  We analysed little sections of paintings using view finders and then sketched our chosen parts. Trying to create people in the same style as Lowry used wasn’t as easy as it looked!  We used glue spreaders, cotton buds, brushes and our fingers to create matchstick-style people.  Working on perspective and on mixing tints, tones and shades was fun too. All of those steps help us to create our own paintings and class display.

Class 3 have carried out a comparative investigation to see if gases have a weight. They weighed different fizzy drinks and then weighed them again after they had been stirred for one minute. The weights of the drinks had decreased because the gas had escaped from the cups; except for one. so, if you want to buy the fizziest drink, you need to buy Coca Cola.
