Year 4 2025-2026 Blog

Welcome back after the holidays. 

Our topic for the Spring Term is:  What was life like for the Tudors? Here, the children will be fully immersed into the Tudor time period. They will be creating a class book about the Tudors for World Book Day,  studying the Tudor monarchy, William Shakespeare, Tudor explorers and looking at their diet and cooking up a Tudor pottage. Alongside the Tudors, Year 4 will be finding out about teeth and how their digestive systems work and joining in British Science Week activities. What a fully packed 5 weeks we will have! 

Just a reminder: 

A massive congratulations to all of the Year 4 children who gained an award today. They've worked ever so hard to finish off the term and I'm immensely proud of all their determination. I hope they all have a fabulous half term holidays and are looking forward to our Tudor and digestion topics when they return. 

Year 4 have been been working hard this half term perfecting their yoga poses. I've so impressed by their flexibility, regulated breathing and their peaceful approach to our sessions. They have made great improvements and extended their repertoire. The coach assessed them today and was highly impressed by their mountain, chair, eagle, cobra, sun salutations, baby poses and many more. A special mention goes out to Ted, Flynn, Isla, Lottie, Millie and Orson for their dedication. 

Year 4 had a fabulous time making their circuits work by testing objects to see if they were conductors or insulators. They found that scissors, sharpeners, purple pens, the plug, the door handle and even earrings and glasses all had areas that conducted electricity. Great experimenting Year 4.
