Parents of Class 11

Phew! We made it!!

Thank you for your very generous gifts, but even more for your kind words. It’s been a brilliant year and lovely to watch your children learn and grow. I have no doubt that they are all ready for Year 5 and will rise to every challenge that they face. I will miss their smiling faces, their laughter, their determination and their questions (so many questions!). It’s been a year of highlights for me and they’ve taught me so much too! You’ve been a fabulous group of parents who I feel I’ve got to know really well. 
And the best news…I’m returning for a while in September to teach Year 4 again. So I’ll be able to watch them take their first steps in the Upper Juniors (and still be available for the occasional hug!). 
Enjoy your summer’s. Have fun!

With much love,

Mrs Kendrick

Please can you send a strong carrier bag into school with your child tomorrow, 15/07/25. We are sorting out books and these will come home this week.

Thank you!

What a busy week! We are immensely proud of the Year children and their behaviour on the school trip on Monday. They learnt how to make flour, how to build using wattle and daub, learnt about a variety of Tudor weapons and hunting methods used by the Tudors. We enjoyed listening to many of the Year 4's singing and playing instruments, thank to those parents who brought their children to join us. We have continued to learn about teeth and are finishing our teeth information leaflets. We have also identified and compared angles.

As we head into the last week of term it's going to be another busy week!

Violins in Church!

Just a quick reminder that we are meeting at church at 5:45pm this evening for a 6pm start. The concert should be about an hour long. Violins are being taken to the church for your children to use.

Tatton Park Trip 2025

We had a great trip to Tatton Park on Monday. The attached link will take you to the photos taken of Class 11. There are a few group photos of all of Year 4 as well!

Tatton Park Trip 07.07.25

Just a quick reminder that we are visiting Tatton Park on Monday. Please can you make sure your children come to school in uniform, sensible walking shoes and bring a waterproof coat. If it looks like it is going to be sunny please apply sun-cream to your child in the morning before school and make sure they have a hat. If your child needs hayfever medication please make they have had this in the morning before coming to school. We will take inhalers for the children that have them in school.

Your child will need a packed lunch that they can carry in a small backpack, they will be responsible for carrying their own bags so please keep them small! If you have pre-ordered a sandwich from school these will be given to the children in the morning.

Our coach will be leaving after registration and we will return in time for the end of the school day, so normal pick up please!

We're looking forward to a fabulous day learning about Tudor times and we will post pictures of all experiences on here next week!

Many thanks,

The Year 4 Team

It has been a busy couple of weeks in Year 4. The children have now all had a chance to be in their new classrooms and spend time with their new teachers. It's lovely to see them all growing up and they are ready for Year 5! It was also great to see happy faces and excitement when they found out who they were with and the teachers they will work with next year. 

We still remain busy in class and have been looking at newspapers and writing a report about moon dust coming to the UK, identifying the features of newspaper articles, converting 24 hour and 12 hour time, beginning to practice our Battle re-enactment and watching a film about William Shakespeare.

Also we have been learning about keeping out teeth healthy, writing instructions for Mrs Kendrick to brush her teeth, making a map of our own teeth, investigating the effects of sugar on our teeth, working in collaboration with Year 6 using Microbits and helping Year 3 with their story writing.

The pictures below show us working with Year 6, how some drinks can affect our teeth (they were shocked by the affects of Ribena, Coca Cola and Energy drinks!).

We were also treated to a performance in class from the children currently learning the clarinet. Children from year 5 and 6 showed off their skills. If you are interested in clarinet or any musical instrument lessons please contact Theatr Clwyd directly.

Enjoy your weekend!

W/C 16/06/2025

This week in Year 4 we have been beginning to plan a Tudor poster to help stop crime, converting time from seconds to minutes, solving time problems and auditioning for our parts in the Battle of Bosworth.

We have tried to stay as cool as possible and are very excited for our sports day this afternoon!

Class 11 have sent poems in to Young Writers. They will be receiving certificates next and a letter home giving details for permission to use these in a book. Please look out for these letters in your children's bags.

Have a good weekend and stay safe in the sun!
