Year 4 2026 -2027 Blog

Year 4 wrote Mrs Parker lots of letters to presuade her (or not) to climb a mountain and raise monies for school. She replied to every letter and commented on how excellent they are were. She would love to climb a mountain, aslong as year 4 joined her! 

I have just had the privilege of counting the money raised for our sponsored walk on Monday. Well, what can I say? You have raised £2,618.50 so far by sponsoring your child to walk around Gorse Hall. The Year 6 children have mapped the route this morning and are eager to marshal the event. We are so grateful for your generosity. Whenever you pop into school, please have a look at how our sensory room is developing.  I look forward to seeing a lot of you on Monday morning when you join us on the sponsored walk. Dress up warmly as there is a slight chance of rain. 

Last week, some of our KS2 pupils represented Tameside in the Greater Manchester Primary Panathlon County Final! They took part in lots of different activities to earn points for their team. We are so proud of you all, what an achievement to get selected to represent Tameside! Well done everyone! 

Year 4 loved their online workshop with author and historian, Greg Jenner. They told him so many facts they remembered about the Romans and the Stone Age and learnt how he uses his history knowledge to write childrens books. He has even been involved in Horrible Histories!
