Welcome to Year 4!
Mr Charlton Miss Parkinson Mrs Gadula
We are delighted to be with you in Year 4.
It will be an exciting time with lots to learn and lots of fun to be had along the way.
We will be learning about Ancient Greece and The Great Plague in history; comparing rivers in geography; electricity, sound and much more in science; plus all the other exciting things in RE, The Arts, PE and more! MAPAS will come each week to teach music and later in the year we will have a concert at The Lowry!
At the end of the year you will have a times table check, so we will spend lots of time helping you to conquer the times table mountain and then you can show what you know at the end of the year – you will be great!
We are really looking forward to watching you learn, develop and be amazing all year long!
Mr Charlton, Miss Parkinson, Mrs Gadula, Mr Parkinson and Mrs Hattersley.
