This Sunday, 24th November, marks the feast day of Christ the King. This represents the end of the church’s year. Christ the King is one of the most important titles of Jesus. Even though Jesus Christ was not a king in the earthly sense, He is the divine King of the Universe, who unites all of creation with the Father.

We have been extremely busy with our learning in Year FOUR this week. Here’s what we have been up to…
In English, the children finished their wonderful outsider narratives and have begun to research polar bears for our next piece of writing..
In Maths, the children learned to multiply and divide by multiples of ten (10,20.30.40. 50 etc.).
In Music, the children have continued playing their cornets. Keep playing at home! The hard work now will be worth it.

In RE, the children begun work on John the Baptist.
In computing, the children learned about computational thinking and particularly, abstraction and pattern recognition.
Cricket

This week was particularly challenging, the children learned about bones and muscles and then completed a circuit of activities. .
