Year 4 2025-2026 Blog

The Eco Leaders did a fantastic job when they went litter picking at Gorse Hall.  With the help of Mr Pickles from the Friends of Gorse Hall and Mr Moon from Tameside Rotary and we collected 4 big bags full of litter.  All of the children worked really hard even in the pouring rain.  Well done everyone for helping to improve our local environment which will help our wildlife to grow and thrive.

On Thursday 27th April we will be joined by Manchester based poet Matt Goodfellow. He will perform some of his poems in assembly and during poetry workshops throughout the day. The children thoroughly enjoyed working with him last year and I am sure they will create some amazing poetry with him again next week.

Please ask your child to share their poetry with you on Thursday. 

Year 4 got the chance to set up their experiment today to see how sugary drinks affect their teeth. They used eggs to represent teeth and will be comparing those placed in water, milk, vinegar, orange juice and coke, with and without toothpaste. Keep checking our blogs for the results.
