WELCOME TO RUBY CLASS
Our topic for this half term is…..
Overview
This half term, Ruby Class will be journeying back to World War II with our history topic, A Child’s War.
We’ll explore how the war began and the impact it had on everyday life in Britain, from rationing and bombing to the experiences of child evacuees. Our young historians will learn what life was like for children during the war and reflect on their bravery and resilience.
Using classic stories like Carrie’s War and The Lion and the Unicorn for inspiration, we’ll step into the shoes of evacuees, writing heartfelt letters home to capture their emotions and experiences. We’ll also compare life for children in wartime Britain to life today, thinking about the ways the world has changed and what we can learn from the past. This topic will help us understand not only the historical facts but also the personal stories of children who lived through this pivotal time in history.

As part of our Incredible India topic, Year 4 explored the vibrant world of Indian folk art, with a focus on the traditional Madhubani style.
Using pencil as our medium for the half-term, the children practiced a range of shading techniques to create depth and give their artwork a 3D effect. Our final pieces are inspired by the intricate patterns and bold designs of Madhubani, showcasing the students' creativity and growing artistic skills.
