Welcome back, Year 4! What a hot start to the new school year it has been. We have spent this week getting to know each other in our new classes and adjusting to new routines. The continued warm weather has meant that we have been able to enjoy break times on the field and we have relaxed with some calming mindfulness activities in between learning tasks.

Our first topic is 'Invaders and Settlers ' and we will be exploring and comparing how and why the Romans and the Vikings both chose to invade Britain.

Between the 8th and 17th September, many Heritage sites are having open days, where you can visit free of any charge. Welwyn Roman Baths and the Verulamium Museum in St Albans, are two such places. For further information visit www.heritageopendays.org.uk
