As part of the transition process for next year, please can your child wear their school uniform to school on a Friday and bring in their correct PE kit (navy blue shorts and a white T-shirt) to change into in school.
We also have our Year 4 Trip to Duxford and Sports week towards the end of term.

Spring Term 2025
Spring Term 2025
We would like to welcome the children back after the Christmas holidays; we would also like to wish you a Happy New Year.
Our main topics for this term are: Living in environments, Anglo Saxons and Mexico. We are also looking forward to starting our new Art unit called Painting and mixed media: Light and dark and continuing with our Computing where we will be looking at Coding.
We are looking forward to Young Voices and our residential at ROCK UK.
Just before Easter, we will be performing the passion play at St Mary’s Church.
Many of our children will continue to take part in collective worship with Rev. Bill and Rev. Graham.
We would like to remind you that the children should practise 15 minutes on Times Table Rock Stars and Spelling Shed should be practised 10 times per week to ensure that these skills become fully embedded.
At St. Mary’s we want every child to develop a love of reading and of books. We have chosen a selection of ‘Core Books’ for children in each year group (please see above). These books are a mixture of classics and exciting new books by a wide range of authors across a range of styles and genres. During their time in Year 4 children will get to know these books inside out, through their use in English and Topic lessons as well as being read at story time. We hope that they are also books that children will enjoy sharing with their families at home too!
