Year 4 Residential Visit

In Year 4 the children go on a residential visit designed to deliver the KS2 P.E activities, in the Outdoor and Adventurous section that forms part of the National Curriculum.  In 2012 Year 4 will visit the same venue we chose last year at the YMCA, Newby Bridge, Ulverston, Cumbria, as it provides an extensive range of age appropriate activities.

The visit includes planned activities by the YMCA by qualified and experienced instructors, a two night stay at the hostel inclusive of full board and personal injury insurance and transport.  The types of activities on offer are:

Culture in the UK Day 2011

This day was a whole school event.  We worked together to learn about similarities and differences in various parts of the UK.  All the teachers brought photographs and food in from where they were born.

Children brought in information about members of their family who were born somewhere other than Wylam.

A Letter from Buckingham Palace – June 2010

In Year 1, as part of our Australian Topic, the children wanted to send Queen Elizabeth a birthday card to celebrate her official Australian birthday. The children drew lots of Australian animals and a beautiful portrait of the Queen. I was very proud of our wonderful card and how excited the children were to receive a letter from Buckingham Palace to thank us all.
