Year 4 2025 - 2026

Welcome to Year 4,

I am delighted to be your teacher this year and cannot wait to get to know each and every one of you. We are going to have a fantastic year filled with exciting learning opportunities, new challenges and plenty of fun along the way.

I believe that every child can achieve great things, and I will encourage you all to be the very best versions of yourselves. Year 4 is an important and exciting year, and I look forward to helping you grow in confidence, independence and resilience as learners.

Alongside our core subjects of English, Maths, Science and RE, we have lots of exciting topics planned throughout the year.

In the Autumn Term, we will be exploring the geography of Europe and comparing different localities with our local area. During the Spring Term, we will travel back in time to learn about the fascinating world of Ancient Greece and discover how its influence can still be seen today. In the Summer Term, we will investigate the mighty Romans and explore the powerful forces behind volcanoes and other geographical features.

Towards the end of Year 4, there is the Statutory Multiplication Tables Check. We will practise regularly in school to help you feel confident and prepared. 

We are fortunate to have specialist teachers supporting some areas of our curriculum. PE lessons will take place twice a week, and we will continue to enjoy opportunities in music and French throughout the year. 

Most importantly, I want our classroom to be a place where everyone feels happy, safe and valued. I am excited to celebrate your successes, support you with challenges and create wonderful memories together.

I hope you enjoy the rest of your summer, and I look forward to welcoming you to Year 4 very soon.
