Year 4 - Blwyddyn 4
Welcome to the Year 4 Noticeboard
27.6.25
Dear parents/carers,
Our children have continued to work hard on their enterprise project and can’t wait to showcase all their amazing efforts next week. They’ve learned a wide range of skills, from sawing wood and sewing pincushions to decorating plant pots using decoupage techniques. We’re incredibly proud of their creativity and determination, and we hope to see you all at their sale!
In literacy, the children have been practicing writing balanced conclusions based on our class debate about whether zoos should exist. It’s wonderful to see them thinking critically and expressing their views clearly.
Recently, we enjoyed reading Red: A Crayon’s Story by Michael Hall as part of the No Outsiders series. This sparked a thoughtful discussion about differences and acceptance, encouraging empathy and understanding among the children.
Next week promises to be busy and exciting, with a musical experience at Brangwyn Hall and, of course, the much-anticipated enterprise sale.
Thank you for your continued support. Any questions or concerns please don't hesitate to contact us.
Regards
Year 4 team
