Year Four

Welcome to Year Four!

The Year 4 team this year are Mr King, Mrs Naylor, Mr Hewitt, Mrs Hobell and Mrs Burtonwood.

The children will have Spanish lessons with Mrs Perez and PHSCE with Mrs Hurren.

On this page, you will find key information about our routines, expectations and curriculum. This includes our knowledge organisers. Knowledge organisers outline what the children will be learning across each subject in each term. They include key facts and vocabulary for the children to discuss with you and practise recalling at home. By the end of each unit of learning, they need to be able to explain these facts and vocabulary to others confidently. The knowledge organisers also include suggestions for ways the children could deepen their understanding through research and other tasks at home. We hope you find them useful.

If you need to contact a member of the team to discuss any questions or concerns, we are always available to talk to at the end of the day.
