Year 4
Class Teacher: Ustadah Shumaila and Ustadah Bushra
Dear Parents/Guardians,
A very warm welcome back to the new school year. We hope you had an amazing summer break and now the children are motivated and excited to start another school year. We are looking forward to working together so that we can have a very exciting and productive year for your child.
In year four for the first week back, we are easing the children in by offering fun and exciting activities and lessons for the children to participate in. We will be using this time to allow children ample time to ease into school life.
Snack and Lunch boxes/ Allergy Policy
At school we operate a healthy eating policy. Items such as chocolate, sweets, fizzy drinks etc. are not allowed in lunch boxes. Please can you provide your child with a piece of fruit for morning snack. We also have a severe nut, pineapple and coconut allergy in class so any foods containing those ingredients will be sent back home.,
Context for learning
This half term, our topic is "Romans and Celts". This unit will teach children all about the Roman civilization, including its culture, empire, army, contributions, and lasting impact. They will also explore key events that took place during the time of the Romans and Celts.
Communication
We would really appreciate your feedback. Please feel free to comment by email shumaila.ashraf@ilmschools.org and bushra.qaudri@ilmschools.org or via the ClassDojo app. We are also available when you pick your child up from school.
P.E.
The children will be doing P.E. on TUESDAY. Please ensure your child comes to school wearing grey jogging bottoms and black trainers on this day.
With best wishes,
JAZAKUM ALLAHU KHAYR for your support.

We have also a spelling test for the children every Friday, the words for the week will be posted on ClassDojo.
