Welcome to Year 4

A  warm welcome to all children in 4RW and 4FB.

In Year 4, the teachers are Miss R Whiteley and Mrs F Bashir. The teaching assistants are Miss S Kitchen, Mrs T Jarratt and Mrs H Hardy.

Polite Reminder

Just a polite reminder that all items of clothing should have your child's name in - including coats, PE/Swimming kits and school uniform. This helps us to return items back to their owner quickly.

 

Forms

Should your child have to miss PE/break times due to illness or injury, please complete the form.

If your child is unable to remove their earrings for PE, pleases complete the form.

 

Homework

Homework is set on a Friday and should be completed by the following Thursday.

Please support your child and encourage the completion of homework as it will either revisit work already taught that week, or prepare the children for what is coming up the next week.

Indoor PE

Swimming replaces indoor PE until w.b 9th February 2026.

Indoor PE is on a Wednesday, when we are not swimming. 

Outdoor PE

We try to go out in all weathers, therefore we recommend children bring a thin waterproof coat/sports jacket they can wear for a PE lesson.
