Key messages

In Year 4, we aim for our children to enjoy learning through an engaging, cross-curricular approach and to achieve their very best. We aim to make each child’s experience of Year 4 exciting, challenging and memorable. Parental support is essential in motivating and engaging children with their learning. With this is mind, we ask you to support us in the following:

• Ensuring that children read at least four times weekly
• Ensuring that children access TTRS for up to 10 minutes four times a week
• Ensuring that children come to school with the items they need for that day such as: PE kit, spelling books, reading bookmarks, homework books, any letters that need to be returned and a school bag
• Regularly checking your emails as we no longer send paper letters home
