Year 4 2025 - 2026

Hello and a warm welcome to Year 4!

Welcome to Year 4. The teacher in Year 4 is Miss Holmes and our TA 's are Mrs Broadbelt and Mrs Ennis. 

Routines of the day

The children in Year 4 come into school each day between 8.45 and 8.55 and complete Arithmetic during this time to develop their mathematical fluency and understanding of concepts. On a Monday, Wednesday and a Friday, we then go to assembly. On a Tuesday and a Thursday, we complete a longer, taught Arithmetic lesson before our daily Maths lesson.

Playtime is at 10.30 - 10.45. Children can bring a healthy snack to eat or toast can be paid for half termly on Parent Pay. The children can also have milk if they wish which is payable through Cool Milk. The children have access to water throughout the day.  Please make sure that water bottles contain water and not juice.

The end of our school day is at 3.25pm where children will be brought out onto the playground to meet parents/families who are collecting them. If they are attending FUNDA or an after school club, they will go to where the club is being held. 

Bags for school should be a school book bag and NOT rucksacks please as these are a health and safety hazard in our cloakrooms.

Please make sure that your child is weather ready every day and brings a coat as we all know that the weather in Britannia can vary from one day to the next! We do try to get the children outside as much as possible at breaktimes and lunchtimes. If it is cold, please send hats, scarves, gloves etc too.

PE

PE this half term is on  Wednesday and Thursday.

PE kit is a Britannia green top or plain white t shirt, joggers, leggings or shorts (grey/black/school green) and trainers. Please make sure that your child only wears trainers on PE days.
