Year 4 - Spring 2 - Week 3

Date: 11th Mar 2026 @ 1:41pm

We’ve had a week full of determination, positivity, and a brilliant attitude towards all of our learning tasks.

The children have worked incredibly hard to complete their assessments, showcasing everything they have learned so far this year. Our school value of Hope shone through, as the children tried their very best and showed real perseverance.

In Collective Worship, we explored the jobs robots can do and imagined the jobs we might like them to do for us. This led to a thoughtful discussion about our own uniqueness and the incredible skills we each have that can never be replaced.

In RE, we took a closer look at the Easter Story and discovered that there are several moments where people either stay loyal to Jesus or let him down. While Judas’ betrayal is the most well-known, the children were able to recognise other examples of trust, fear, loyalty, and forgiveness throughout the story.

To celebrate British Science Week, with its theme of curiosity, we investigated how volcanic eruptions work. Using vinegar and bicarbonate of soda, the children created their own erupting volcanoes.

History lessons involved reflecting on key events that led to the rise of Christianity in Britain. Art sessions explored how to reflect, rotate, and create symmetrical patterns.
PE included developing netball footwork skills and finding some tranquillity through yoga.

Across the week, we also focused on brain awareness by learning just how powerful our brains are, how to look after them, and how TSP thinking tools can support us in our learning.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend and a special Mother's day! We look forward to seeing you again on Monday.
