Year 4 DT, by Mrs Harris

Date: 12th Dec 2024 @ 2:50pm

Year 4 Families....
You will recall the DT lesson last week, where children created their own working aqueduct......
This week with Mr Humphries, the children tested their aqueducts and evaluated their overall design. They questioned its stability, how waterproof it was and whether or not the water flowed down the structure.
Following this, the children thought of improvements they would make 👏👏👏

Enterprise Day 2024 - how we spent our hard earned profit 📈, by Mrs Harris

Date: 10th Feb 2024 @ 6:58pm

Year 3 raised a total of £43.75 during our enterprise afternoon! The children decided to buy books and stationery. Each class now has a set of 8 'Diary of a Wimpy Kid' books and a stacking pencil each. 

From planning to making, advertising to selling, the children had a great time building their enterprise skills, which I'm sure will help them in the future.

Thank you to all the children in OLSE for supporting Year 3!

 

Enterprise Day Marketing Videos and Posters, by Mrs Harris

Date: 1st Feb 2024 @ 9:46pm

The children had a wonderful time during the preparation for Enterprise Day 2024!

Their entrepreneurial skills were certainly put to the test and they all did so well.

Modern life means our young people need to be resilient, innovative and not afraid to experiment - all important for entrepreneurs.  

We are using Enterprise Day to develop a range of skills in our pupils. These skills include:- team work, financial literacy, organising and planning, using initiative, negotiation, taking risks, creativity and innovation.

A key part of enterprise is the making of goods, followed by the marketing and selling of these goods. 

Take a look at our presentation / marketing videos and see what you like the look of 😊

Year 4 Residential at Tattenhall 

Day 1

After a smooth coach ride we arrived at Tattenhall. We toured the accommodation and made our beds! 

The children settled for lunch and then explored the outdoor area before starting our activities. Mr Nelson’s class started with Bushcraft and woodland Survival and Miss William’s class braved the low ropes, zip wire and tree climb!! 

We went for dinner and followed that with a campfire (s’mores and toasted marshmallows 😜😜). We changed into our pyjamas and had a film night with our snacks…ready for another busy day tomorrow!
