Year 4

Welcome to Year 4 - Please view our Meet the Teacher Presentation here.

Children in Year 4 will be taught by Mrs Hunt and Mrs Flaherty (4HF) or Mrs Middleton (4M), their Teaching Assistant is Mrs Cooper.

In Year 4, our main aim is to develop the children's independence, both at home and in school, ready for Upper Key Stage 2. This is achieved through a wide variety of interesting and exciting topics which range from discovering how Ancient Greek inventions still impact our lives today to finding out what life is like for children living in Norway. Not only do these enthralling topics provide multiple learning opportunities inside the classroom, there are also a wide variety of trips and outdoor experiences to be completed too!

We believe that ensuring children's well-being within school is a key factor to our success. Through our PSHE lessons, Year 4 children are encouraged to think positively about themselves, treat others with kindness and to understand who to turn to if they are feeling unhappy. Developing an effective home/school relationship with parents/carers plays a huge part in this. Should you need to contact any of the Year 4 team throughout the year, please use the emails below:
