In full stride
Year 4 is an ac on packed adventure ! The children gain greater independence and relish the opportuni es for challenge and growth . The trips and workshops are a highlight for many and we were once again treated to quite a few fantas c experiences this year , ranging from a day trip to The Victoria and Albert Museum , a two night residen al to Bowles Ac vity Centre , a workshop making a Viking Long Boat and stepping back in me at Butser Ancient Farm and The Verulamium Museum .

Year 4 visited the Verulamium Museum in St Albans to learn more about life in Britain during Roman mes . The pupils had the opportunity to explore the museum , handle Roman artefacts , try on Roman garb and see how a hypocaust hea ng system func oned .
