4HD
NSPCC Sponsored Event
This afternoon, 4H (and 2 6R pupils) took part in 'Big Buddy's Workout' to help raise money for the NSPCC.
The children were faced with 6 sporty challenges: Burpees, sit-ups, shuttle run, hula hooping, skipping and a ball challenge. They worked hard and really pushed themselves for half an hour while rotating around the different challenges.
By the end, they were exhausted and did themselves (and Buddy) proud! Well done!
This term in Computing, we are becoming toy designers. Our aim is to create a moving toy and the children have come up with some fantastic designs so far. Today, we have been busy creating our sprites ready to start programming next week.

Fizz Pop Science visited Year 4 today and a fantastic time was had by all!
We learnt about insulators and conductors and then conducted an experiment to see which one we were by passing an electric current around a circle.
The most exciting part of the morning was using the Van de Graff machine. Several of the class described the feeling of the electricity as 'fizzy' and 'tickly'! Everyone had a turn and the results were hair-raising!

Mrs Dixon and Miss Hayden would like to say thank you to all the children and parents who have wished us both well as we begin our maternity leave. We have really enjoyed teaching 4HD this term and hope that all the children continue with the brilliant start they have made to Year 4. We would like to warmly welcome Miss Hill, who is taking over 4HD and hope that she enjoys her time at Robert Bakewell Primary School. Good luck everyone!

Here are some photos of our recent topic day. We had great fun baking bread using a traditional Viking recipe. We measured our ingredients and even used a pestle and mortar to grind some corn.
We also designed and made a shield. We used paint to decorate it and used a paper plate in the middle to make a boss.
