Years 3 & 4

Thank you to Blaize Anderson, who has done a terrific job as Year 3 class teacher this term and who is looking forward to welcoming the new Year 3 into the classroom in September.

ButserAncientFarm

Year 4 visited Butser Ancient Farm to discover what life was like for the Celts in Britain. As they sat round a fire in a roundhouse, they made Celtic jewellery and learned about the daily life of the Celts. They used drop spindles to spin wool and carved Celtic designs in chalk.

Later, they visited a Roman villa to compare the differences between the two homes. They were all fascinated by the Roman toilets where people could even spend time playing a game! Later in the term we had a Roman visitor. The children interviewed him about his life. He taught Roman board games, and the children drew Roman artefacts.
