Welcome to Badger Class!

Badger Class is the name of our Year 4 class. Our teachers are Miss Pizzey (Monday-Thursday) and Mrs Millin (Friday) and our teaching assistant is Mrs Coe.

We try to do lots of fun things in Badger Class, whilst believing that the ability to rise to a challenge, be independent and be responsible for ourselves and our actions are key skills in order to succeed.

We cover a range of topics over the course of the year including:

• From the Andes to the Amazon (South America and the Amazon Rainforest)
• Bright Sparks (Electricity, Programming and Robots)
• Clash of the Titans (Ancient Greece)
• Age of Empire (Ancient Rome)
• Food Glorious Food (Healthy eating, the digestive system, farming and fair trade)
• Spies and Spitfires (The home front in World War 2)

We take part in Forest Schools activities each Wednesday afternoon in the first-half of each term.

In addition, we are lucky enough to be the year group which benefits from Suffolk’s Wider Opportunities music scheme. This means we all learn to play an instrument (currently a clarinet) throughout our time in Badger Class. This year, our music lessons will be on a Monday morning.

I endeavour to send home a 'Badger Bulletin' at the end of each week to keep you up-to-date with what we have been doing in class and to give suggestions of how you can help your child at home.
