Y4 Spellings

Due to printing issues at school, next week’s spellings will be on Google Classroom.

As soon as the matter is resolved, we will stick the spellings in the child’s diaries.

Apologies,

Mrs Fenn

Update 4.5.21

Dear Parents/Carers,

We are now hopeful that we will have an uneventful rest of the term. What with the disruptions of Covid 19 and the fire, surely we have had our fair share of issues to deal with…

We keep our eye on the infection data for our area and have decided to continue our drive back to normality, albeit at a necessary slow pace.

We are giving you notice that from next Monday (11th May) we will be reverting back to a 8.40 am start and 3.10 pm finish for all children unless they are in Breakfast Club or After School Club.

The one way system and requirement for adults to wear masks whilst on our site remains at this time. If you can, please continue to pick up your child alone, to reduce the amount of people on the school site.

Please remember that registers close at 9 am so it is not essential to all crowd in for 8.40 am.

It is still paramount that you play it safe when considering sending your child into school if they are unwell. Two schools locally have had real problems with mini Covid outbreaks because of this.

Regular testing is really helpful in keeping control of the virus. Our staff continue to test at least twice a week.

Thank you for your support.

RSE Information – Year 1 to Year 6

Dear Parent / Carer

Please look in your child’s communication diary for a letter which has been stuck in asking for your consent for your child to take part in RSE lessons.

Please go to the RSE page on the school website (learning/subjects/RSE) to see the outline of what your child will be taught.

Once you have read the information including the policy please tick and sign the letter in your child’s communication book.

Kind regards

School Closure and Remote Learning

Hi Year 4

Unfortunately, the school today has been unable to open due to yesterdays fire nearby.

However, we will be having a live lesson on Microsoft Teams today at 11am. You should receive an invite to this lesson shortly and this can be found on your teams/outlook calendar. This will work the same way as our lessons during remote learning, with the lesson being on Microsoft Teams and Google classroom tasks being set afterwards.

In the meantime, there are other activities you can be doing. These include your spellings which are also available to practise on Google Classroom, going on Times Table Rockstars and reading on Bug Club. The passwords and usernames for these can be found in your reading diary.

We are sorry for the inconvenience

Mr Jackson and Mrs Fenn

 

Curriculum Consultation – Year 1-6

Curriculum consultation 21.4.21

Dear Parents and Carers,

Today you will have received an email which outlines our consultation period connected to our relationships and sex education curriculum.

This email contains important information about what your child will be learning about in their class and a link to an online feedback form which outlines the content in more detail. Also included, is an information leaflet regarding the scheme that we use to support this curriculum area.

Please can you take a moment to review the materials that you have been sent, recording any feedback on the form. Please note, if you have children in different year groups, the links to the forms are different as the content changes.

Kind regards

Deputy Headteacher

Year 4 Reading Diaries

As a school, the decision has been made that the normal system with regards to handing in of reading diaries daily will commence again. As well as handing in diaries daily, we will print off the spelling sheets and stick them into diaries every Friday. Times table homework will still remain on Times Table Rockstars. In addition to this, we will still be continuing to use the Year 4 email as a way for parents to communicate messages with the Y4 staff if you would prefer.

All of the changes stated above will start as of Monday 26th April 2021. In the meantime, you can either continue with the virtual diary or move completely back to recording in the physical diary this week.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding,

Year 4.
