Year 4 Kites and Hawks
Welcome back, Year 4 - Hawks and Kites!
We hope you had an enjoyable Easter break. We have exciting topics and activities for Summer 1. In History, we will be learning about the the Romans in Britain and we will be going to Colchester Museum as part of our studies. Also, we will be designing and making Romans mosaics. We will be learning about all living things and their habitats in Science. Our P.E. topics this half term are athletics and swimming.
If you have any questions or need to talk to us, leave a message either by email or phone call at reception.
We look forward to working together to make this year a successful, happy and memorable one.
Our P.E. days this half term are:
4 DHGP (Hawks): Mondays (indoors) and Fridays (swimming).
4 EC (Kites): Tuesdays (indoors) and Friday (swimming).
Children need to wear their P.E kit to school on their P.E. days. Please, do not wear earrings on your P.E. days and make sure your hair is tied up.
