The classroom was buzzing with creativity, teamwork, and plenty of determination as the children embraced a real **“don’t give up”** attitude. From planning designs to sticking, shaping, and decorating, the process involved lots of collaboration—and even more glue! It was wonderful to see the children supporting each other, solving problems together, and showing resilience when things didn’t go quite as planned. We can’t wait to see their lanterns light up the parade and bring a magical glow to our community celebration. Well done, Year 4! ### Getting Creative - Lanterns [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9764.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9764.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9761.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9761.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9760.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9760.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9759.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9759.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9770.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9770.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9769.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9769.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9768.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9768.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9767.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/thumbnail_IMG_9767.jpg) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/720x720s/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/Lanterns_1.jpg)](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/images/gallery/getting-creative-lanterns/Lanterns_1.jpg) [Year 4](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/year-4) [DT](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/dt) [SMSC & Cultural Capital](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/tag/smsc-cultural-capital) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/IMG_8170.jpeg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-21-06-54-year-5-s-evaporation-experiment) Previous ### [Year 5's Evaporation Experiment](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-21-06-54-year-5-s-evaporation-experiment) [![](https://files.schudio.com/brooksideps/imagecache/100x100c/blog/thumbnail_IMG_9776.jpg)](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-25-09-50-exploring-volcanoes-around-the-world-with-year-4) Next ### [Exploring Volcanoes Around the World with Year 4](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog/2025-11-25-09-50-exploring-volcanoes-around-the-world-with-year-4) ### School Life - [Brookside Blog ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/blog) - [News](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/news) - [Events](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/events) - [Photograph Galleries ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/photo-galleries) - [School Council](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/school-council) - [After-School Clubs ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/after-school-clubs) - [KIDZ Club](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/kidz-club) - [Calendar](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/calendar) - [Newsletters](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/information-for-parents/newsletters-2026-2027) - [Mental Health ](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/school-life/mental-health) ##### Location Rostherne Avenue Great Sutton Cheshire CH66 2EE ##### Contact Us 0151 558 1123 ##### Stay Connected - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/groups/brooksideprimary/) © Copyright 2014–2026 Brookside Primary School School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://brookside.cheshire.sch.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
