Seven Acres school trip

We had great fun on our school trip where we learnt about rivers and their features. We raced some rubber ducks to find out the speed of the river and we did some kick sampling to learn about the creatures that live in the river. It was a great day out and lots of learning and fun was had.

Ancient Greek pots

Year 4 have been planning, designing, creating their own Greek pots. It's been a lot of messy fun, but we've learnt how to plan a panel to carve into the wet clay, we've learnt how to use the pinch pot technique and the coil technique to mould our pots, and we have learnt how to paint our design onto the pot.
