Welcome to Year 4
The Year 4 team would like to take this opportunity to welcome you and outline some of the exciting learning that will be taking place this year. We aim to challenge the children to become independent learners as well as provide opportunities to develop team work. We explore a range of possibilities throughout the year and particularly on our trip to Thorpe Woodlands. We thank you, in advance, for your support throughout the year. It really does make a difference!
