Year 4

Welcome to Year 4!

 Welcome back Year 4! We hope you have had a great half term break and are ready for more exciting learning this half term! 

This half term P.E will  be swimming on Mondays and then in school on Tuesdays. Please can children make sure they have everything they need on these days and come to school wearing the correct PE Kit. Children should wear plain black leggings or joggers, white t-shirt and a plain black sweatshirt or hoody on PE days. Black trainers should be worn on PE days. Swimming kits should be worn underneath clothes ready to set off straight after the register on Monday mornings. Swimming caps can be purchased via the school gateway app. 

Children are expected to take their book bags home and bring them back to school the next morning on a daily basis. They need to make sure they read at home on a regular basis to allow good progress. The expectation is at least 3 times a week. House points are awarded to children for their regular reading at home.  Children must also make sure they are regularly practising their multiplication tables. It is important that children practise their times tables regularly as they will be undertaking the National Multiplication Check in the summer term.

The doors open at 8:45am and close at 8:55am when the register will be taken.  Home time is 3:15pm-if there are any problems please let the office staff know.

Our big question this term is ‘What are the features of Europe?' Children will learn the names of European capital cities and famous landmarks. They will also look at the location of famous rivers and mountain ranges.

We will post regular updates on what the children have been up to and what they are learning on the Horton Mill Facebook page so keep your eyes peeled! You will also receive a newsletter with more details on what your child will be learning across the curriculum this term.

 If you have any questions or wish to discuss your child’s learning, please see us or any member of the Year Four team before or after school. We are always happy to share the exciting learning of the children.

Mrs Hartley, Mrs Clavin, Mrs Bibi, Mrs Akhtar and Mrs Parveen.
