Dear Parents and Carers of Year 4 pupils,

Welcome back!  We have lanched our new topic ‘What did the Anglo-Saxons and Vikings leave behind?’  The children have already taken part in an immersive activity about longships and will be finding out a lot more about these two periods in history over the coming weeks.  Please see the mindmap on the school website for details of the curriculum and how the topic fits in. 

Home learning, will be set every Monday and needs to be completed by the following Monday.  Year 4 home learning will resume on Monday 7^th June and will have a topic focus this half term.  All home learning tasks will be set on Seesaw and can be accessed using the details previously issued to you.  If you need help with your child’s login details, please let the school office or your child’s teacher know.  As well as this, children should be reading everyday and be given opportunities to summarise or talk about what they have read.  Pupils can change their school reading book as often as they need to.

This term, Y4 pupils will continue to take part in P.E. fortnightly with Mr Gibbs and weekly with their class teacher.  This means they do two lessons one week and one lesson in the following week.  Please see the details below for P.E. days when your child should come to school wearing kit.
