On these days, children should arrive at school in their PE kit. Please note that some PE lessons will take place outside, so as the weather gets colder, please make sure they have a navy-blue tracksuit to keep them warm. Year 4 will begin their swimming sessions in the Spring term on a Thursday morning. From Thursday 15th January 2026, please send the children into school with their P.E. kits on and a named swimming bag with their swimming kit inside.

Spellings will be taught in school and practised at home.
