Hello, welcome to our new webpage for Year 4 2018-19! We have already had an AMAZING start to Year 4, all our children have settled in brilliantly and we have really enjoyed getting to know our new classes and meeting many parents and carers. We feel very lucky to be once again working with such inspiring and hard-working children here at LHPSN.

We have had a fantastic start to exploring our fascinating new theme, The Romans, including using this as inspiration for writing about a Roman battle. Our current school value is Empathy, which children have already shown a strong understanding of through our PSHCE lessons.

All Home Learning and Spellings will be displayed on our class web pages – if you require a paper copy of either, please just ask. Please encourage your child to complete all Home Learning tasks and learn their Spellings to support their learning in the classroom. Both the weekly spelling test and times table club will be on Fridays this year. Reading books will also be coming home on a Friday.

Year 4 are lucky enough to participate in the FAME music programme. The children will this year be learning the flute and ukulele. Children will soon begin to bring their instruments home to practice with, please ensure children have their instrument back in school every Wednesday for their music lesson. A FAME concert will be held later this year, we will give details nearer the time.

PE lessons will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Please ensure that PE kits are in school at all times during term time, this has been brilliant so far so thank you!

Year 4 is also the year in which we work our way towards a very exciting Pen License awarded for neat handwriting, so please feel free to do extra practice of this at home!

We always welcome parents’ input into our work in school so if you have any resources at home or you have an interest in the subjects we are covering, then do please let us know.

As always please feel free to contact us if you have any queries or concerns, we will be more than happy to help to ensure the whole of Year 4 feels safe and happy. We are both looking forward to an exciting year in Team 4, thank you to all parents and carers for your support already this year.

Mrs Ray and Miss Hahlo.
