Primary School" --- # Familiar Faces and Fierce Competition. ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-stephen-s-ce-primary-school/images/blog/IMG_1576.JPG) 18 September 2026 [Year 4 Blog](https://www.ststephenscofe.durham.sch.uk/blog/category/year-4-blog) Now that the class are starting to find their feet a little, it’s been lovely to see more of their personalities come through in work and in play. The class have so many natural talents and watching these emerge across the curriculum has been my highlight of the week. We continued with our focus on the Ancient Greeks as well the human body in History and Science. In English we added even more to our Writer’s Toolkit by starting to include ‘fronted adverbials’ to our sentences. Year 4 were delighted to see some familiar faces when Miss Wilson took the class for Yoga whilst Mrs Bulmer unleashed her inner Diva when teaching a music lesson inspired by Abba’s Mama Mia. Finally, the competition has been hotting up as the first ever TT Rock Stars contest was launched this week. The lead has changed hands multiple times as the class are fighting it out to be this week’s recipient of the TTRS trophy!
