Good morning,

We hope that you are all well and keeping warm despite the chilly weather!

At the end of last week, Year Four were very excited to welcome parents and carers to school, to take part in our DT sewing afternoon. We would like to thank everybody who attended and supported the children. The children made a fantastic selection of purses, wallets and money carriers – we were very impressed by the creative, unique and purposeful designs and fastenings that had been generated by the children. We now look forward to sharing our sewing products and gifting them to our chosen friend or family member. Please see below for a selection of images…

We also enjoyed celebrating a Y3/4 Mass with parents and carers at St. Peter’s, led by Father Jeremy. Thank you again to everyone who attended, and a huge well done to all of the children and staff who were involved in the preparations for Mass. We would also like to thank Miss J. Heath (Oaklands chaplain) for all of her hard work and for practising prayers and readings with the Year 3 and 4 pupils.

A few brief reminders for next week:

• Monday 30th January 2023, from 3.25-4.15pm: Y4 parent book look in the Y4 classrooms. This is an opportunity for your child to share their learning with you and to talk about what they have enjoyed so far in Year Four.
• Red home learning books (Spelling, Vocabulary and Maths) to be completed and handed in to school by Friday 3rd February 2023.
• Please encourage your child to continue logging on daily to Times Table Rockstars, in order to help them to prepare for the Y4 multiplication check in the Summer Term.

We hope you all have a great week,

Best wishes,

Year Four Team
