Science

We have definitely been very busy in Science so far this year, from making circuits to egg experiments and disintegrating gingerbread men! The children have been really challenging themselves to work scientifically, as shown by their amazing investigations and growing knowledge. Now, we’re moving onto states of matter with more exciting investigations to follow!

Environmental Project

For our environmental project, the Year 4 children decided to encourage invertebrates into the environmental area by growing insect-friendly plants into tyres. Later on this year, we are going to be observing the plants and classifying the invertebrates that have been attracted to the area.

PE

At TGMS, we are so lucky that we are able to try such a wide variety of sports. So far this year, we have done units of: roundnet, ultimate frisbee, pop lacrosse, benchball/dodgeball, yoga and fitness & circuits. That’s not to mention our Year 4 football match against a local primary school that we won!

Christmas

We had a super fun day this year at Christmas, with games, music and a year group lunch!

VR Day

VR Day was a big hit amongst the Year 4 pupils (and teachers too!). They explored The Great Pyramid of Giza as a part of our cross-curricular learning and had a 360 view from inside the Tomb of Neferati.

The Ashmolean Museum

The Ashmolean Museum was a fantastic trip where the children were able to consolidate their knowledge about Ancient Egypt. They took part in a workshop where they got to handle authentic Ancient Egyptian artefacts and even see a real sarcophagus! Also, a big shout out to our incredible parent volunteers who allowed our trip to run so smoothly.
