Welcome to Year 4

Hello and welcome to Year 4, Classes 9 and 10. In Year 4, the class teachers are Mrs Long and Mrs Bower (Class 9) and Mrs Crask and Miss Rand (Class 10).  Mrs Leat and Mrs Harrop cover Year 4 on Monday afternoons.  In both classes, we also have a number of Teaching Assistants who will be supporting our learning each week in the mornings and afternoons. 

In Term 1, our topic is 'I am Warrior' where we will be exploring the Romans. Term 2 is about 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe', the well-known story written by C.S. Lewis. Later terms include 'Road Trip USA', 'Traders & Raiders' and 'Blue Abyss' so there will be plenty of exciting learning ahead of us. To find out more on any of these topics, please click on the numbered term sections on this page which will be updated as we progress through the school year. 

To help us celebrate our learning, we hold a success event three times a year when parents/carers can come into school to share in what we have learnt. We are also proud to present our Middle Years performance in Term 5. Information on this will follow later in the year. 

In class, we continue to nurture our values that we developed in Year 3 in striving to be our very best. We celebrate our achievements in a collaborative, supportive way and show kindness to others. Our school values which are to navigate, inspire, challenge and succeed are at the heart of what we do. 

If you have any questions or queries, please do ask any of the team. 

Best wishes,

The Year 4 Team
