Important Information

PE Lessons and Kit

Please ensure your child has a full PE kit in school in a named PE bag. PE kits should be brought in at the beginning of the Half Term and left in school until the end of term. A list of the full PE kit can be found on the website under Parents > School Uniform. 

4AR PE days - Monday and Thursday

4RC PE days - Wednesday and Thursday

Water bottles 

Please ensure your child brings in a named reusable water bottle every day.

Reading Books 

We encourage Year 4 children to read every day to support the development of their reading fluency and vocabulary. All reading should be recorded in the Reading Record books. Please ensure that the children bring their reading book and record into school daily. 

Homework

Homework will be set every Friday and is due the following Wednesday.

The homework will consist of book work or online tasks such as those set on My Maths. 

The children will be set weekly spellings on a Monday. Children should practise these spellings in their green spelling books, ready for their spelling test on a Friday. 

We also recommend the children complete regular times tables practise on TT Rockstars. In May 2023, the Year 4 pupils will take a statutory Multiplication Check. This is a short, computer based assessment of the children's recall of the times tables. Regular practise of their times tables on TT Rockstars Soundcheck Mode will be good preparation for this. 

For further information on homework, please see the attached information below.
