On Wednesday 13th Ma

On Wednesday 13th May, we had the we had a special guest for one of the boys in Year 4's Show and Tell. He talked about rugby and brought in his cousin, Jake Morris, who plays for Gloucester Rugby.

He shared his love of watching his cousin play then the children all asked Jake lots of questions! He told them all about his diet, exercise and training routines. Jake has scored many tries for Gloucester and the children were very impressed with all the teams from around the world that he has faced in matches! He kindly signed them all a picture at the end, it was the highlight of the week! The class also sang him happy birthday he turned 26 on Tuesday 12th May!

We explored the incredible life of Amelia Earhart, sequenced her achievements on a timeline, and then brought flight to life by designing our own paper planes—a glider, a jet, and a dart plane. The best part? Watching them soar over the “Atlantic”! 🌊

The children remembered so many fascinating facts and had a blast combining learning with hands-on fun. Future pilots and explorers in the making! 🚀
