Wednesday 20 September 2023 Y4 RE Food Tasting After learning about the festival of Rosh Hashanah, Year 4 sampled some of the food that Jewish people would eat during this celebration. They ate apples dipped in honey - eaten in the hope of a ‘sweet’ new year, and pomegranates - eaten because they traditionally have 613 seeds, the number of rules that Jews are asked to follow in the Torah.

Thursday 14 September 2023 Movement Lab This week children were reintroduced to the Movement Lab. They played ‘The Floor is Lava’ in which they had to remain either on the high apparatus or on specially place mats. Children demonstrated amazing agility and balance when manoeuvring around the equipment!
Year Four is the second of four years children spend in Key Stage Two (KS2).
They follow the Y4 or lower KS2 programmes of study from the Primary Curriculum.
Children are taught key subjects through specific units of work for example themes and projects such as Take One Picture, Beowulf and the Anglo Saxons, and Harry Potter during STEM fortnight.
Children can be taught by different teachers for example in Spanish and Music and in PE they work with a number of specialist coaches for example tennis and cricket.
Children have a weekly swimming lesson one morning each week. They also have access to an exciting range of extra-curricular clubs such as Choir, Football and Dance. In the spring term they have the opportunity to go on an outdoor activity residential to Robinwood Activity Centre.
Children are assessed regularly so that we can plan next steps and report progress to parents.
