Autumn Term 2026
Year 4 Reminders
Trip: On Thursday 24th September, Year 4 will be visiting the National Maritime Museum and Greenwich Park. Letters have been sent home with all the details. Please ensure your child returns the permission slip as soon as possible.
Our weekly spelling tests take place every Monday. Pupils will learn the spelling rule in school during the previous week and should practise their spellings at home.
Your child will also have brought home a purple Reading and Writing Journal. They can fill in an entry in either the reading side or the writing side each week. Inside the front and back covers you will find suggestions of activities they could complete. Please note your child's day for bringing this in (Monday to Thursday) which they will have on the inside of their journal.
On Thursday mornings, we start our day with Reading for Pleasure. Parents and carers are invited into our classroom until 9:25am to read with the pupils.
Year 4 P.E lessons will take place every Tuesday morning. On Tuesdays, pupils should come in to school wearing their P.E kits and bring a water bottle.
Times Tables: All Year 4 pupils will take the National Multiplication Tables Check (MTC) in June 2027. Times Tables will therefore be a big focus this year, and your child will be doing daily practice in school. Please work on these with your child at home to help build their confidence ahead of next Summer!
POWer Project: Please see the handout below that was sent home in week 1 for information on this term's POWer project.
