Important Information

The gates will open from 8:30am. The class register will be taken at 8:45am and learning will begin immediately after this. It is vital that pupils are on time to school so that they do not miss any important learning.

Pupils should bring to school each day:

A water bottle with their name on
Suitable clothing for the weather to ensure they are comfortable during outdoor break times
A packed lunch (if required)

Pupils are to be collected from school at 3:15pm

P.E. and Swimming

4 Ash have P.E. every Tuesday and Swimming every Wednesday
4 Pine have P.E. every Tuesday and Wednesday
Children should come to School in their P.E kits. Jewellery and watches must be removed for P.E and Swimming lessons

Homework is given out every Friday and is due back the following week. Homework is optional to complete

Multiplication

Children in year 4 should know all of their times tables (up to 12 x 12) in preparation for the multiplication check later this academic year. We will practise these in class and it would be beneficial for children to practise these at home. Children should be able to answer each question within 6 seconds.
