Year 4 Friday 12th May 2017 - upcoming events

Hello Everyone!

Thank you to all of you who were able to make the 2 information sessions last week, I hope they were useful!

We are fast approaching half term and there are already A LOT  of things to mention................


Next Tuesday afternoon 10 children have been selected to swim in the Year 4 DASP swimming gala at 1610, those children will bring a letter home tonight. Parents are invited to watch, it begins at 1pm and will last approximately 1 1/2 hours, there is a £1.50 spectators charge.

Next Thursday the children have been offered the opportunity to have some bicycle training at school, please fill out the permission slip and return it to Mr. Macbean.

This Saturday 13th May is the DMS open morning, see the times on your letter.

We have also just begun our 10 week musicianship programme provided by the Dorset Music Service. This year we are lucky enough to be learning Samba Band, so no instruments will be coming home. Throughout the 10 week programme myself and the drum teacher will be looking closely for a group of children who may be offered the opportunity of continuing with 2 terms of music lessons, free, at their new school - what an exciting opportunity! We are very lucky!


FYI:
On Monday 22nd May we will be having a Year 4 CELT themed day. Please could they come dressed as a CELT for that day (do not go out buying anything, I have spoken to the children about what they could use for a costume from items at home!) You may also like to start thinking about a Roman costume for the second half of the term!

On Friday 26th May (last day) we will be having our DT day, we will be walking to Tesco in the morning and shopping for our pizza and toppings. We will also need 3 volunteers to join us for the morning, so if you would like to join us, please do come in and ask! The children will each need to bring in £2 so that their topic table has enough money! This can be brought in in a named envelope before the day - thank you!!!!!!

I told you there was a lot going on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you to all of you who have kindly been writing letters to me giving permission for your child to walk to or from school, I cannot emphasise enough how important this is in terms of safe guarding and welfare. If you would like your child to begin walking to or from school as part of the process of building independence for next year, then please put in writing the days that they will be doing this!

Many thanks for all your support,

Mrs. Johnson and The Year 4 Team.
