Welcome To Year Four

We are delighted to welcome you to Year 4 and are excited for the learning journey ahead. We look forward to working with you and supporting every child as they grow in confidence, curiosity, and independence throughout the year. 

This term, our topic is Invaders, where we’ll be exploring fascinating periods of history with a focus on the Romans and Anglo-Saxons—uncovering how they shaped Britain and what life was like during their time. In Science, we’ll be investigating States of Matter, learning about solids, liquids, and gases through engaging experiments and hands-on activities. 

As part of our daily routine, we place a strong emphasis on building core skills. Practising times tables regularly on TT Rock Stars is a great way to boost speed and accuracy in maths, and we encourage all children to log in often. Daily reading at home is also vital—it helps develop vocabulary, comprehension, and a lifelong love of books. 

It’s going to be a fantastic start to the year filled with discovery and enthusiasm for learning! 

We look forward to a fantastic year ahead!

 Forest School

Forest School is led by Mr Tilbury and takes place once a week. During these sessions, children will spend time exploring and learning outdoors in the school forest area or at Chicksands Woods.

Children may arrive at school wearing their Forest School clothes and should bring their school uniform with them to change into afterwards. Please ensure that your child wears warm, comfortable clothing that you don’t mind getting muddy or wet, as outdoor learning can sometimes be messy.

We aim to run Forest School sessions in most weather conditions, so it is important that children have appropriate clothing and sturdy footwear for the outdoors. Sessions will only be cancelled in the event of extremely high winds or severe storms.
