Welcome to 4E
Welcome back 4E!
I hope you all enjoyed the break and feel relaxed and refreshed. We have plenty of fun things planned for this term so I hope you are just as excited as I am!
As you may know, the land of the pharaohs is famous for its huge pyramids, bandaged mummies and its golden treasures. We will be spending the next few weeks embracing the wonders of Ancient Egypt, finding out about where the ancient Egyptians lived, what was important in their daily lives, who Tutankhamun was and how Egyptian people used hieroglyphs to communicate and compare the powers of different gods. Our overviews for this term are featured below.
Many thanks,
Miss Edmonds

This half term, our P.E. lessons will be on a Wednesday. Please send your child to school in their full P.E. kit. The children must have their school jumper or cardigans, no hoodies, please.
Snack
The children are welcome to bring a snack to be eaten during morning or afternoon break times. Please ensure that these snacks are healthy!
Medical Conditions
If your child has a medical condition that we need to know about, please inform us as soon as possible. If your child requires an inhaler or any other medication, please make sure it has been returned to school and is not out of date.
Homework
Homework will be set online on the VLE every Monday from 4.30pm. Please encourage your child to complete the weekly tasks as well as reading each night (approximately 20 minutes). The children will be tested on their spellings and times tables regularly.
Spelling and Times Tables Links
Making sure that the children can quickly recall all the times tables facts and remember previous spelling words will really help their learning in Year 4. These websites help the children do this at their own pace and in a fun way.

Our School Mission Day
Faithfully following in the footsteps of Jesus,
we serve, love and learn together
inspiring each other to excellence.
On Thursday 16th September, we celebrated and reflected on our Mission Statement as a whole school and thought about how we try to follow in the footsteps of Jesus by serving and loving others. We enjoyed special times of worship, dancing, singing and creative activities together. It was a truly wonderful day and we felt inspired by each other.
