World Faith Day – Waesk

What a wonderful day we had celebrating World Faith Day! The children learned about the celebration of Waesk, creating their own beautiful lanterns as part of the experience. We also enjoyed tasting mango and pineapple, foods often used to celebrate the event. To wrap up the day, the children set their own kindness goals based on what they had learned, reflecting on the values of the celebration. It was a day full of creativity, learning and a commitment to kindness!

Think Tank!

We had a fantastic day exploring the incredible exhibits at Thinktank in Birmingham! The children had a great time discovering inventions, robots and engines, with the science garden being a highlight, especially in the lovely weather. We also took part in an electrifying science workshop that left everyone amazed. The children represented Mereside brilliantly and were a real pleasure to take on the trip. A huge thank you to the parents who joined us!

Year 4 Sustainability Week 2025

Our Sustainability Week was packed with fun, learning and action! We explored a range of important topics, starting with the challenge to ‘Become a Clean Air Superhero’ – investigating air pollution with a sticky tape experiment and designing our own superheroes who made pledges to protect the air we breathe.  We got hands-on with ‘Getting Scrappy’ as we looked closely at food waste. We also took on ‘Show Your Stripes’ to learn about climate change. It’s been a fantastic week full of creativity, curiosity and a shared commitment to looking after our planet.

 

Year 4 Poetry Competition

We were so proud of everyone who took part in our school poetry competition! It was a fantastic event, full of creativity, confidence and expression. Everyone did an amazing job and it was a joy to hear such a variety of poems performed so well. A big thank you to all the parents for your support and to Mrs Baker for organising such a special event.

World Book Day 2025

We had a wonderful time celebrating World Book Day in Year 4! The children looked fantastic in their costumes and embraced every opportunity to enjoy and share books. Throughout the day, we read lots of stories, took part in an exciting BBC live lesson, and welcomed a visiting poet who inspired us with their brilliant poems. Our book swap was a big hit too – it was lovely to see children choosing and enjoying new reads. A huge thank you to everyone who came in to read with the children at the end of the day – your support really made it a day to remember!
