Year 4 Geography - Where does our food come from?
Our Geography topic is all about the different types of foods we eat, where these are grown or sourced and how far it travels to get to us. We have learnt that the food we get from other countries are called imports. This week, we have been looking at the different types of imported foods and used atlases / maps to find out where that country is, in relation to the UK. We were amazed to find out the average cup of coffee has travelled around 8,000km to reach us!
Year 4 Maths - Dividing 2-digit numbers by 1 number
Year 4 have started to put their maths knowledge to the test whilst looking at division. We already know that division is the inverse of multiplication and we can use the facts we know to help us answer division questions. What about when we are dividing larger numbers? Well, Year 4 have been partitioning, using place value counters and other resources to help them answer questions and the results are pretty amazing! Any division problems need sorting, give Year 4 a call!
KS2 TTRS Battle of the Bands!
Here we go ???? We’ve kicked off a KS2 Times Tables Rock Stars Battle of the Bands today, with classes going head to head to see who can rack up the most points.

Year 4 Practicing Our Hockey Skills
This week in P.E., Year 4 have been developing their fundamental hockey skills. We focused on the importance of safe and effective movement, with the children practicing how to jog while maintaining a secure stick position on their right-hand side. To sharpen their reactions and agility, we played a numbered game: at the call of 'one,' pupils side-stepped over their sticks, and at 'two,' they performed a jump. The session finished with a focus on ball control, where students worked in pairs to 'tap' and protect the ball from their partner while experimenting with different speeds of travel.
