Welcome to Year 4
Our topic for this term is ‘Triumph Over Challenge.’ The children will learn about what it means to be resilient and how real people (past and present) have overcome adversity. We have organised for Wendy Searle to speak to the year group about the challenges that she has set herself so far and about her Antarctic exploration that is yet to come. You can find out more about her on https://southpole2020.com/. We will also have a talk from Jamie McDonald https://www.adventureman.org/ (Gloucester’s running man) about his challenges and triumphs. At the end of the topic, pupils will need to use everything that they have learnt about resilience in order to complete a top-secret challenge!

Year 4 have visited Hucclecote Library to peruse the many books they have on offer. We had a great time and chose some really exciting and intriguing books. Ms. Hayward was particularly impressed by some of their Christmas books. We can't wait to go again, early next term.

Class 5 have been composing music as part of our 'Wild Things' topic. In groups, we composed musical themes to describe different animals. We shared our compositions with each other and tried to guess what animals we were describing. It was great fun!
Welcome to Year 4!
Our topic for the Summer term is Wild Things: we are learning all about animals and their habitats.
