Year 4

Welcome to Year 4 - 2025-2026

Dear Parents and children,

The teacher in Year 4 is Miss Thompson. I am supported by our class TA, Mrs Berloth who is in class every morning. Also joining our class this year is Ms. Smith who provides 1-1 support. We are really looking forward to seeing you all back in school and can't wait to start our learning journey in Year 4. Our PE days are Monday and Wednesday. Please come into school in your PE kit on these days. You will remain in this all day so please do not bring in anything to change into.

Our class page contains lots of information about what we will be focusing on this year, as well as links to useful websites. Children are positively encouraged to bring in any work that has been completed that relates to our topic as we love to see what they have been doing at home.

Very best wishes,

Miss Thompson.
