Welcome back to the final half term of Year 4! I hope you have had a lovely break and are ready for the exciting half term ahead. As we are almost at the end of the year, there will be a lot of exciting trips and celebrations happening in school. The Year 4 staff and I would like to thank all the children and parents for a fantastic year full of learning and fun! We look forward to celebrating the children's hard work and achievements in the coming weeks.

This half term the children will be learning all about the 'Ancient Greek Civilisation'. They will be finding out more about the country of Greece and its ancient heritage. They will learn about the features of the ancient civilisation, the beliefs of the Ancient Greeks and how they have impacted on the modern world. They will be producing lots of cross curricular work linked to the Greeks including, art, food technology and writing. This will be a great topic to end the year with and any extra research the children can do at home will definitely benefit them in the classroom.

This half term will also host our last enrichment of the year (this will be happening this half term for both Year 3 and 4, instead of last term). As outlined in my previous letter before half term, the the children will be visiting Haigh Hall in Wigan on Tuesday 27th June. We will be exploring the park, taking a ride on a minature train and having a small picnic - fingers crossed for lovely weather!

As you are also aware, our end of year trip to Llandudno is looming (Tuesday 11th July). This will be a brilliant way to end the year and I know the children will have a fantastic time! Please ensure that you have filled in consent forms to allow your child to participate in both trips, and they are handed into school as soon as possible. Any money for the Llandudno trip should be put into a sealed envelope, marked with your child's name, the amount of money enclosed and 'Llandudno trip money' on the front. I will be sending out another letter soon, outlining important information for our trip to Wales, such as lunches, what to bring and times, etc.

I think that is all for now! Please see Year 4's newsletter of work for Summer Term 2, which outlines the focuses in each area of learning for this half term.

Thank you again for your continued support.
