Dear Parents,

We’ve officially completed our first full week of school, and Year 4 is well underway! It’s been a busy and exciting start. This week, we elected our school house captains and school council representatives.

In class, we’ve started exploring Greek Myths and Legends in English, diving into the fascinating world of gods and goddesses. In maths, the focus has been on place value, where the children are learning to read, write, and order numbers up to 10,000. Our science topic, ‘Animals including Humans,’ introduced us to the digestive system, while in art, we’ve been discovering Picasso’s work and experimenting with his techniques in our own creative projects.

Starting next week, our PE days will be Monday (fitness), Thursday (basketball), and Friday (football). Please ensure your child has their PE kit ready for these days. In science, we’ll be conducting an experiment to explore how different drinks affect teeth, while learning about the importance of dental care. In computing, we’ll be exploring networking and discovering how messages are delivered between systems.

It’s going to be an exciting week ahead! I hope you all enjoy your weekend!

Mr Chanter
