Welcome to our class page!

We are Elton John class and we are the best class in year 4 - although we might be biased!

We have spent time researching Elton John as we are named after him, and we were delighted to find out he wrote songs from The Lion King! So we put on our own performance for year 2... They loved it!

Here we are!

As it is nearly time for us to go up to Year 5, we thought about everything we learnt in Year 4. Here are some films we made showing exactly that:

For World Food Day we organised and carried out a sponsored fun run to raise money to buy some goats (a sustainable food source) for a village in the world where food is scarce.

Our 'Temple Hill pep talk' film to inspire and motivate us to achieve our goals!

We set our own goals that we want to achieve and then made a motivational video to inspire us not to give up.

INSPIRE day with Chris Cook...

We made a video to show them what our community is like.

Our questions for Oshwal Academy, Mombasa, Kenya:

Year 4 link up with a school in Kenya

We have been learning about Kenya and have made videos and written emails to tell them about our school and community, and also to find out about theirs. We even managed to Skype them and asked them questions as if we were face to face!
