Year 4 is an action-packed adventure from start to finish! We aim to deliver a rich and varied curriculum while building the children’s independence and confidence. From exploring global climate zones and designing virtual worlds to stepping into the studio to perform our very own Horrible Histories scripts, there’s never a dull moment.

During the Eggy Challenge, we launch rockets into the sky, hoping to protect our precious eggs from certain doom using only recycled materials. We then go head-to-head with other schools in the Trust for our Blackthorn Project, where the children take the lead—bringing their own ideas to a set theme in the hope of winning the infamous trophy! A major highlight of Year 4 is our one-night residential to Escot. The children immerse themselves in nature, explore an Anglo-Saxon village, and even find themselves up to their chins in a swamp! They also visit a variety of places of worship, exploring the big question: “Does worship need to happen in a special place?”
Each term brings new adventure and challenge—and there’s always something exciting waiting just around the corner.
