Dear Parents/carers
As you are aware, we are busy prepping for our wax work museum next week! The children are beginning to look at how they would like to present their findings on a larger scale.
If you have any large pieces of cardboard, please could you send some into school with your child/children. This will help make the displays/posters more secure and ready for presenting next to them at the museum!
The bigger the better.
Many thanks,
The Year 4 team!
Here are a few reminders for next week:
Monday – 4M PE kits (#1)
Tuesday – 4M to Beech’s Base; 4OP & 4N PE kits (#1)
Wednesday – 4M Violin and PE kits (#2); Homework for this week to be handed in; 4N to Beech’s Base.
Thursday –
Friday – 4N & 4OP PE kits (#2)
Kindest regards

A case of Head Lice in Year 4 has been reported to us.
Please can we ask that all parents and carers check their children’s hair routinely. If lice are found please can we ask that NHS guidance is followed: https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/head-lice-and-nits/
We strongly recommend that pupils with long hair keep this tied back during the school day.
Thank you for your support.
Thank you to all the parents who attended the meeting, after school today.
Attached below are the slides that I shared, answering many of the questions parents have.
Also attached is the kit list and behaviour contract – which needs to be signed and returned before half term.
Any further questions please email me and I will help where I can.
Kindest regards
Mr M
As our Beech’s Base for this half term are coming up over the next two weeks, Miss Lockwood has requested that the children start to save toilet/kitchen roll tubes for this half terms Beech’s Base project.
Ideally they will each need two of equal length.
Thank you for your support

Good morning year 4!
In this message, we are asking for your help… as you know NJS will be completing a ‘Wax Work Museum’ on Thursday 8th February. More details for this will follow soon!
For this, children are asked to come dressed as someone who is inspirational to them! We will be completing some work in our English which will build up to a biography. The biography will be available to see during the wax work museum, which will be displayed next to your child as as display/poster/oversized presentation (see below).
We are asking if you could have some conversations at home regarding who your child would possibly choose. This will help the children feel more prepared when we ask them to choose a person. We are looking forward to helping the children create a biography for the event in the 8th of February!
We hope you enjoy having a conversation about who they may possibly choose and we look forward to sharing our inspirational people with you in February!
Many thanks,
The Year 4 Team!
If you need any inspiration…
1. Have a look on google – lots of information about many inspirational people can be found.
2. The Little People, Big Dreams books are amazing! We will have a range available for the children to look at during English lessons.
