Reading Homework:

Reading homework is set by the teacher every week after our guided reading lesson on a Thursday. The children need to complete the reading and comprehension questions in the reading journal provided and bring it back to school ready for the next guided reading session. 

PE Lessons:

Year 4 have PE on a Tuesday each week. Please ensure that your child comes to school in the correct PE kit on this day. Please can children who have long hair ensure it is tied back. 

Acceptable PE kit:

• blue/black shorts or jogging bottoms
• white t-shirt
• running trainers
• blue/black sweatshirt or hoodie for outdoors

Swimming Lessons:

Year 4 will have a swimming lesson on a Friday afternoon. This will count as one of their PE lessons.

For swimming the children will need to bring:

A towel

A swim suit

Goggles if they need them

A swimming hat if they need one.

A suitable bag that will hang on the pegs in the cloakroom - this is very important as the cloakroom is very small and becomes dangerous when bags are left on the floor.

Long hair must be tied back.
