Welcome to the Eagles
Year 4
As we are the oldest children in the school, we take on various responsibilities. These can include setting up the hall for collective worship, being responsible for the music and the hymn words, being a lunchtime dining hall helper and helping children be physically active. Eagles also take lead roles on the Eco-Committee and Student Council. The children also have the opportunity to become worship leaders and to be part of the choir if they would like to.
Eagles strive to set good examples and show the rest of the school how to live our values.
During year 4, we work hard to build on the maths, reading, writing, spelling and grammar skills from year 3. Our learning, in all areas of the curriculum, is a combination of independent, partner and group work. We share our great ideas and support each other. We enrich our learning with educational trips, visitors and a wide variety of activities in school.
Homework in Eagles is a weekly learning log consisting of two tasks. Children are asked to practise skills learned in school and research new areas of topics. There are also multiplication tables to learn for weekly tests in preparation for the year 4 national test at the end of the year. The children have access to TTRockstars at home and in school to help with their preparation for this. The children are asked to read daily and quiz when they have completed a book to demonstrate their reading comprehension.
We look forward to our residential trip away from home where we develop our independence, make our own decisions and cement our friendships as well as taking part in some amazing activities!
Our PE lessons are led by Premier Sport.
We have strong links with Arnold Academy and work closely with them. We also liaise and meet with the other local lower and middle schools.
The children endeavour to become independent, responsible and confident learners and we prepare them to ensure a smooth and happy transition to their next schools.
