Welcome to the Year 4 Noticeboard

26.4.24

 

 

Shwmae!

 

We have had a momentous week. The children have challenged themselves in so many areas and come up trumps. Sleeping away from home, climbing heights, walking miles, sleeping in a dormitory just to name a few. They have shown great resilience and we couldn't have been prouder of them. We would like to say a huge thank you for having the children so well prepared for this trip. 

 

Those who remained at school made some really interesting and exciting plans, models, pamphlets and adverts for a theme park. They will be winging their way home with them this week.

 

The children were able to use their conversational welsh to order food and speak with the instructors. Da iawn a chi!

 

 

 

 

We have a lot of visitors, trips, and of course the Llangrannog residential happening this term so please make sure to keep an eye on dojo, the school website, and the school calendar for any upcoming events for Blwyddyn 4. Our first trip will be happening next Thursday and we'll be visiting the National Botanical Garden of Wales to help us learn more about or new topic! Please see our class dojos for further information regarding the trip. We look forward to sharing this busy term with children and we can't wait to share with you all that we will do and learn over the next upcoming weeks!

 

Have lovely weekend all!

 

Kind regards,

Year 4 Team.

 

Cofion cynnes,

Tîm Blwyddyn Pedwar
