A Whole New Year!!

Hi all!

This is the first post for our new year group. A big HELLO from Mr. Sumner and the newly named Mrs. Kind. I think Mrs. Kind is probably the best name for a teacher ever, it souns like it belongs in a Roald Dahl book.

Hopefully we can put pictures on here again now. Watch this space…

Senses Poetry Y4B

During school grounds week, we went to the school field to record what we could see, hear, touch and smell. Back in the classroom we used our poetry skills to expand the imagery. We then taped different pieces of coloured paper to our tables and used charcoal and graphite sticks to create images suitable for our poems. After that we used handwriting sessions to write them out neatly before finally copying them onto accetate so they could be glued over the images.

Messing about on the Mersey

Canoeing (or paddling as some people call it) is a great activity, for everyone, you can relax in a boat and view nature in the surrounding area or you can make it a real challenge and use it as a work out. There are lots of different types of canoeing which means there will be something for everyone’s personal taste and ability.

Remember Mr Sheldrake, he has set up his canoeing business on the River Mersey based at Burnage Rugby Club in Heaton Mersey. This coming Bank Holiday Monday 31st May he is organizing a taster day from 10am – 4pm on the section of river alongside Chorlton Waterpark.

See his website www.messingaboutonthemersey.co.uk for more details. All Brookburn families will be eligible to a £1 discount per person.

Half Term is Looming

This half term I’m going to a wedding. What is everyone else up to? If you have no plans perhaps you could write what you’d like to do instead.
