Year 3 and 4 Summer Term 2025
- Details
Year 3 and 4 have had an immensely busy Summer Term with lots of fantastic learning experiences, topped off with a 2 night residential. We are certainly all ready for a summer break!
RE
In RE, we have been learning all about the Sikh faith. We had the opportunity to visit the Northampton Gurdwara, where we learned all about the core beliefs of Sikhism, had a talk in the Prayer Hall, including a close up demonstration of the Guru Granth Sahib, and had a meal served to us in the Langar Hall. It was a really enriching experience and really brought the Sikh faith to life helping us to reflect more knowledgeably back in the classroom.
History
Our History this term has taken us to the exciting lands of Ancient Egypt where we have immersed ourselves in this interesting civilisation. We have learned all about the Egyptian way of life, importance of the Nile, the significance of Cleopatra and King Tutankhamun and cultures of the Ancient Egyptians. We were lucky to be able to visit Leicester New Walk Museum, where we had the opportunity to handle lots of primary sources of evidence to give us more of a glimpse into the past.
Everdon Residential
What an amazing experience!! Although some of us were nervous about being away from home for 2 nights and 3 days, we overcame our worries and had a fantastic time! We were very physically active, went on long walks to the woodlands to develop our teamwork, problem-solving and survival skills. We even were allowed to shoot water pistols at Mrs Evans and Mr Umney! Lots of memories were made on our first overnight trip away with school, and we helped supported one another showing friendship, resilience and sheer determination! We are all super proud of oursleves and had a fabulous time!

"Year 3 and 4 have had an incredibly busy term, with a jam-packed curriculum and exciting enrichment opportunities. In Geography, the children's imaginations have been thoroughly captured during our "Volcanoes and Earthquakes" unit of work. They have learned all about the physical geography of volcanoes and developed their map skills when locating the major volcano clusters around the world. This has led onto deeper learning about the causes of earthquakes and volcanic eruptions, and an introduction to the tectonic plates and their boundaries. The children have also completed case studies on the Indonesian and Japanese earthquakes of 2004 and 2011 and have been deeply interested in the recent developments in the news of the Icelandic earthquake and volcanic eruption, and the one in Asia. This has really brought their learning to life in a real world context.
The children have also participated in a Science trip to Holdenby House, to enrich their learning on "Living things and their habitats". They were able to participate in habitat mapping and used classification keys to identify invertebrates they found in the woodland. This has supported their learning in the classroom on characteristics of living things, and how classification keys work.
Our artwork this term has also added to our learning on living things. We have learned how and where designers get their inspiration for their work and focused particularly on the work on William Morris. The children have created mood boards and textile batik artwork based on the rainforest, thinking about pattern, shape, colour and texture. Some super work has been produced! Well done Year 3 and 4!
