What a busy week Year 4 have had! On Monday, the children immersed themselves in a history workshop. They created different arts and crafts, dances, role plays and much more! The children learnt about key historical figures and busted some myths around this time period. 

Later on in the week, they took part in another workshop focusing on their mental well-being and how healthy foods and exercise can help this. 

We immersed ourselves in ancient history in our recent Amazing Ancient Egyptians Workshop. We were invited to wear Ancient Egyptian-style clothing and became citizens of Ancient Egypt for the day. The morning was full of engaging activities, such as writing with inks on papyrus using hieroglyphics, sculpting canopic jars which were used in the process of mummification and even creating ancient Egyptian perfumes consisting of a ball of wax infused with fragrant herbs which was placed on the head to melt in the sun. We ended our day with a lavish feast and performances of dances and plays depicting Ancient Egyptian stories. We are looking forward to our Geography learning about the River Nile which will lead on perfectly from this!
