Celebrating 100 Years of Sir David Attenborough
Today, staff and pupils at Bishop’s Waltham Junior School came together to celebrate the 100th birthday of Sir David Attenborough, marking a significant milestone for one of Britain’s most influential naturalists and broadcasters.
Pupils took part in a special live assembly, learning about Sir David’s inspirational life and his lifelong commitment to protecting the natural world. Throughout the day, children also enjoyed a range of outdoor learning activities that encouraged curiosity, respect for nature and an appreciation of wildlife.
Many pupils and staff marked the occasion by wearing clothing inspired by the great outdoors, wildlife and the natural environment, adding to the sense of celebration across the school.
It was a wonderful day that linked learning with our love of nature, inspiring pupils to think about their role in caring for the planet now and in the future.

Year 4 - Friday 8th May 2026
Hello, Year 4 have been enjoying the fine weather and the Summer term learning!
PE
After our District sport trials at the start of the term, we’ve been focusing on athletics. From skipping, vortex throwing to standing long jump the year group have enjoyed the different athletic activities. Additionally, as a year group we have participated in some orienteering games. These give the children an opportunity to work in groups to hone their compass and map reading skills in conjunction with exercise activities, the children have loved it!
Science
This term's unit has been all about electricity! From looking at the dangers of electricity to creating vaious circuits, this unit is definitely a favourite with the children!
Geography
This term we’ve started our Physical Study- Economic unit where we studied the chocolate industry. We have already learnt about the Ivory Coast where most of Britain’s chocolate is imported from. We’ve also explored the continent of Africa and taken ‘looks’ from other people’s windows, via the internet. This activity allowed us to see similarities and differences in how people live from around the world. Next, we’re going to investigate the process of making a chocolate bar!
DT
This week we’ve made Night lights! Initially the children looked at the features of manufactured night lights to explore what they could include in their own designs. The next activity involved nets and shell structures to decide what would be the best shape for a simple lightbox, which was followed by designing their own versions! To bring the night lights to life, we used a program called ‘Crumble’ to program a set of lights and a Raspberry Pi. These were then placed inside the night lights and shown to the Year 3 classes who were very impressed with the light show and box designs!
Stubbington meeting reminder
With our trip rapidly approaching we will be holding our Stubbington briefing on Wednesday 20 May – 5pm. The meeting is to show parents and children the structure of our trip and allow you to ask any questions you may have. We look forward to seeing you!
As always, thank you for your support, we couldn’t do it without you!
