Shwmae a Croeso i Ddosbarth Cedrwydd, Blwyddyn 4 & 5.

Hello and Welcome to Cedars class, Year 4 & 5.

​

Welcome to Cedrwydd Class
Welcome to Dosbarth Cedrwydd, our Year 4/5 class led by me, Miss Harries. In Cedrwydd, learning is hands-on, creative, and full of curiosity! We explore big questions through exciting, cross-curricular topics that link closely to our community and the world around us.

​

To start the year, our theme will be Let There Be Light. We’ll be investigating electricity, light, and shadow, and discovering how these have shaped Welsh history—from life in the coal mines to light in modern homes. Through stories such as The King Who Banned the Dark and real events like the Aberfan disaster, we’ll develop empathy, understanding, and respect for the past, while exploring how light continues to impact our lives today.

​

Throughout the year, our class will have the exciting opportunity to work with Slade Farm, learning about sustainable farming and the importance of caring for our environment. As part of this, we’ll design and grow our own mini farm in the school allotment area—planting, caring for, and harvesting our own produce. Linking to this, we’ll also be working with Cooking Together Wales, who will visit the school to deliver cooking lessons. Keep an eye out for a special invitation to join us for a cooking session where pupils will welcome their parents and guardians to take part!

​

Pupils will use their literacy, numeracy, and digital skills across all subjects—from creating digital weather reports and persuasive adverts to measuring plant growth and recording data. Our learning in Cedrwydd helps us understand our cynefin—our place, culture, and community—while becoming ambitious, capable learners who care for people and the planet. We can’t wait to share our learning journey with you!
