Year 4 2025 - 2026

Hello Year 4!

Spring Term

2025-2026

Mrs O'Connor and Mr Gough

Welcome back everyone!

We hope you have had a lovley break and are excited to return to school.

Staffing

We are lucky to have a range of experienced staff supporting us throughout the week. Miss Connah will be working with us from Tuesday to Thursday. Mrs Davies will support the class on Wednesdays and Fridays. Additionally, Mrs Barlow will be working with us on Mondays.

Here are a few useful reminders:

PE

Like last term, children will need to continue to come into school in their uniform everyday. They will require a PE kit to be kept in school at all times. The kit will need to consist of: a plain (or logoed) light blue PE top, plain navy shorts, a pair of trainers or pumps.

Depending on the time of year children may also need a pair of joggers to be brought in for outdoor PE. On PE days, children will be able to wear their sports hoodies instead of their jumpers if they have them.

Our PE days will be Thursday and Friday.

Times Tables

The children have improved their confidence in their times tables last term. We will be continuing to work hard on improving our speed and understanding of the relationsihips between different factors throughout the term, building towards the National Multiplication Check. Any support you can give the children with learning and practising their multiplcation tables would go a long way. The children have all recieved their TT Rockstars logins. This is a great way to develop their skills in a fun way. Below are some links that could be used at home:

Homework, Diaries and Spellings

Homework will be set on Fridays and should be handed in by the following Thursday unless otherwise stated. The work will link to what we are covering in class. On some occasions, work will be sent to you via school spider. Please let us know if your child has any difficulties by popping a note on their homework or sending us a message. 

Children will continue to come home with their Reading and Homework Diaries which will contain their homework and spelling patterns that they will be learning in school. Please ensure their Reading and Homework Diaries come into school every day.

If you have questions throughout the year, please get in contact via: [email protected]

We are looking forward to welcoming you back to Year 4 and hearing about your Winter adventures!
