In maths this morning I wanted to assess the learning in class 4 about our work on angles this term. The class had to: Measure angles Calculate missing angles Draw angles (very accurately) BUT...they had to incorporate this into their own computer game screen shot. Here are a few of them Tess: I used the angles to make [...]
Class 4 spent a great morning at Tarka Tennis today taking part in a range of tennis related activities. It was our first sporting event of the year and I was really proud of the way they had fun, but worked hard on their skills and supported each other! Well done everyone! Tarka have offered everyone who took [...]
Class 4 had a great day at Arlington Court today, finding out what it would be like to have worked there during the Victorian period. The children applied for positions in the kitchen, garden or household staff and were put through their paces by the housekeeper who was looking to employ young trainees to prepare for the return of the [...]
In one of the blog post this week Mr Thomas wrote about our SEAL topic 'New Beginnings'. As it was my first Friday with class 4 we decided to think about how we can work well together in our new beginning as the NEW class 4. So.... the children had to work together in teams to build a tower using just straws and masking [...]
Good-bye and Good Luck year 6!! Well done to all our year 6s for a fantastic end to their time at Georgeham - their acoustic version of 'Thank you for the Days' did Mrs P proud. They have been a super year group and it was great to celebrate their many achievements and successes (and enjoy Mrs Holborn's photographs from [...]
We made it. phew. Well done, congratulations and we hope you have a lovely summer.

The school's Rose Bowl trophy goes to Lottie Cunliffe! The Tony Fletcher trophy goes to Molly Elliott! The Spirit [...]
Yesterday class 4 proved they had talent by the bucket load as they took part in our end of term talent show. Hosted by Sam and James (definitely the Ant and Dec of Georgeham School) and judged by our very own pannel of experts, the afternoon saw some talented singers, musicians, dancers and gymnasts all show off their skills. Quite [...]
Year 6 tucked into their handmade pizzas yesterday for their traditional leavers' lunch. Thanks to Kerry for laying on the feast, and to both Kerry and Mrs Shaddick for providing this year's yr 6 with not 1 but 2 delicious chocolate cakes!!
On Friday afternoon Class 4 went to Braunton Academy for a workshop to investigate the 'Science of Colour and Light'. Everyone lit a Bunsen burner and investigated the various colour of flames that different chemicals produce. A great afternoon...one child claimed that "it was the best fun ever" and he could "happily do this all day" :-)
Over the last few weeks class 4 have been learning all about the heart in science. We used a stethoscope to listen to our heartbeat and made our own using everyday items like tubing (we decided that a doctor needs a real stethoscope and not a piece of tubing :-) ) After we learned the key information, the class had [...]
