Summary of this week:
Dear Year 4 Parents and Carers,
We are so proud of the children for putting in plenty of effort in practising and performing their poems and songs at Christingle. Thank you to those of you that supported the children in walking to and from The Church. The children thoroughly enjoyed having a creative afternoon of building the roof for their structures. Next week we will be setting up an experiment in science, which we are sure the children will enjoy.
