Hi Year 4,

Happy Easter - I hope you are staying safe and well! 

This week, I have been on some enjoyable walks in the sunshine. There is a lovely walk by my house which is along the River Esk. It is very picturesque and peaceful. I have also read some books in the garden, making the most of the sunny weather. 

I have also challenged my wife to games of Scrabble and Monopoly She is very competitive and likes to win! We made some homemade pizzas one night - they turned out rather well (See the picture below!). I hope you enjoyed completing some of the 10 challenges - it is important to keep busy during these times when we are not together in school. 

Please see below week 3's challenges - I wonder how many you can complete? 

Speak soon, Year 4 - stay safe and take care.

Mr Townsend

Hello Year 4, 

I hope you are all well and have had a good week. Did you enjoy doing some of the weekly challenges? I hope so!

This week, I have been busy in the kitchen making some tasty meals! I would definitely recommend banana pancakes.

All you need is: 2 bananas, 3 eggs, a teaspoon of vanilla essence (if you have this) and 2 tablespoons of self-raising flour whisked together! Cook in a pan on a high heat (see picture below) I served mine with fruit and yoghurt - they were very filling. 

I have been continuing to get my daily exercise by taking a walk. I have also completed Joe Wick's PE sessions too! I hope you have been able to get out each day for some exercise - it is very important to keep healthy and active during this time.

Please see below my 10 challenges for this week. I hope you enjoy doing these at home :)

Take care and stay safe!

Mr Townsend 

Hello Year 4!

I hope you are all well and are keeping safe inside!

I will be posting on our class page every Monday to let you know what I have been doing during the week to look after myself, and will also post 10 activities you can do at home to look after yourself.

Last week, I went on a local walk and did the Joe Wicks workouts on YouTube at 9am every morning. 

Below are the 10 activities I would like you to try for this week. I hope you enjoy doing them!
