Hot Chocolate!

In Class 5, we were inspired by scenes from the Polar Express to write our own descriptions of the most luxurious hot chocolate we could imagine.We were then able to drink our creations together.

Putting the 'chill' in Chill Out

It was an extremely chilly Chill Out today, but Year 4 soldiered on, through icy fields and muddy quagmires. We hid some treasures amongst the trees for other brave wanderers to discover and hunted for our own, in a challenge between classes.

The Magical Christmas Jigsaw!

Wow! Year 4 put on a fantastic performance of The Magical Christmas Jigsaw yesterday! The children dedicated hours of hard work in learning their lines, lyrics to the songs and rehearsing their parts! It all paid off and they received a well-deserved standing ovation! We are very proud of them all! We hope that you enjoyed the show! Well done Class 5 and Class 6!

Year 4's views on God



In RE this half term Year 4 have been exploring what Christians believe about God and what they believe. 
Here are some of their amazing ideas:

In my opinion God is a huge mystery that no one can solve. But what really puzzles me is actually how he created the earth. One of the things about God is how he can see everything including every tiny movement. In addition, I think that God is a really good person. He probably created the flood for the greater good of the earth because long ago people were sinners. Hanna

I believe God is like a guardian to the world and sees everything. When I’m stuck on a question I think about God then the question seems clearer to me.  Taneem

In my opinion God is full of love and light. I think he is a nice God who used to be alive. People don’t believe in God but I do and he made me out of mud. God is like a spirit. He can collect everyone’s thoughts in a second. I think he can help me if I am stuck.           Zac

In my opinion God is not real because you can’t see him up in the clouds and not in the universe.  Mason 

Some people think that God is real and he created the universe but I think that God is just a myth. He didn’t create the universe. I think it was a big bang that came out of nowhere.
Ruben

I believe that Allah created the world, all the planets and many more. God protects everybody when something bad happens like a war. I disagree with people who don’t believe in Allah because in my religion we do.  Something that is puzzling me is who created God? Allah is the time starter. Irfaan

I believe there is an angel on our shoulder. If you do something bad or good the angel will write what you did. When you sleep the angel will go to Allah and Allah will check it.
Mukaram

I believe that if you believe in God he will be there for you but if you don’t he won’t be there… I believe in God but I don’t think he can watch over everyone all at the same time.
Eliza

I believe in God.  Dylan

In my opinion God loves everyone no matter what they do and God is like a teacher to Christians. I believe that God sent Jesus down to earth to do amazing things and to teach everyone to be good. I also believe that God and Jesus are the only living things that are perfect. However, I don’t think that God is everywhere I just think he’s in heaven. Emily

I believe God is real, he helps people if they’re troubled and he is a God of love. However I’m troubled by, if he is the God of love why are there so many wars?  Thomas

In my opinion, I think of god as all hearing and all seeing. God is everywhere and you can’t see him. I also think that he made us out of mud, clay and water. People don’t believe that God is real but I disagree with them. In my religion God is named Allah.       Kamilah

In my opinion, God is real because we wouldn’t be alive. He can help people because he’s life giver, promise keeper, heart warmer and energy booster.  He can help a person open their eyes because that person could not see anything before.     Melina 

In my opinion God is not real but I believe in Jesus and most of the stories. Sometimes I feel I’m stuck on something then it comes to my brain and I believe that it might be the light of God. He might not be seeable but he is thoughtable.              Yann 

God helps us to keep safe day and night helping you with tricky answers. He is always making space for us. He makes sure that to achieve your dream you have to dig a little deeper to find your gem.  Saskia
