Year 3

In year 3 our recent History Topic has been

the Romans. We decided to bring the topic to

life by having a 'Roman Theme Day'

dressed up in Roman costume and discovered

how weird it was wearing a toga. During our

lessons we learnt much more about Roman

Life, in PE we had javelin lessons and a solider

training camp, as we were imagined we were

Roman Soldiers. In Romanian Language we

learnt some Latin. In Numeracy we looked at

the Roman Numerals and did our calculations

with them instead. We still had ICT, but used

this time to play interactive games to find out

more about life in Roman Times! We made

clay pots and mosaics, but the most enjoyable

part of all for most of us was our Roman

Banquet, as we fed each other with Roman

foods.

A great learning experience, bring history to li

Many Thanks to all teachers involved, especially

our specialist teachers.

Year 4 enjoyed all the activities for the

international days. Miss Liane’s

presented us with a spectacular ‘dances

from around the world’ assembly. Great

costumes, fancy moves and a wonderful

array of hats. If you missed it, be sure to

visit the school website!

The international parade allowed the

children to show off t

costumes. On display were outfits from

many different countries including Romania,

Turkey, USA, India and Brazil.

Just when we thought things could not

possibly get any better, the children were

whisked off to visit several countries for

‘Around the world day’. They participated in

traditional dances, tasted local dishes,

played games, sang songs and filled their

passports with stamps!

YEAR 5

Year 5 have had a very busy couple of weeks recently, the highlight being the residential trip to Sinaia. Although the weather was very wet and cold for much of the time, it did not dampen our spirits.

We spent our time climbing up through muddy forests (while trying not to attract any bears!), enjoying a guided tour around Peles Castle (and then getting extremely wet while buying lots of gifts) and using the cable cars to ride high up into the clouds.

Luckily we were able to use a covered football pitch for some recreation time when the rain was just too heavy for us to be working in Sinaia Park.

All of the students took part in a talent show on one evening. There was a very wide range of talent on show, from dancing, to acting, to magic tricks and everybody had a great time.

All of the students were on their best behaviour and were a credit to our school and to their parents.

If you wish to see all of the photos that were taken, they are to found in the Gallery on the school web site.

Happy viewing.

In October Year 6 enjoyed a busy but sunny trip to Tulcea and the Danube Delta. We were able to visit the Delta on a beautiful boat trip and saw much of the area’s wildlife, including egrets, cranes, moorhens, and it was rumoured, even a snake! We also learned a lot from our trip to the Ecological Museum aas the Folk Museum. Here we saw traditional Romanian costumes and customs and investigated not only the native species of the Delta, but also those which have become extinct.However it wasn’t all work! We also had a quiz, talent show party, with some special prizes being awarded. The students showed the best of themselves and made ISB and their parents very proud of their independence and responsibility.

Well done Year 6!
