Year 4 Easter Poem

As you have reached the end of your second term,

many new things you have managed to learn.

Although right now you are off,

rest assured the teachers are missing you lots!

You have rehearsed SO well for the play,

we hope that it can be performed one day!

Lots of hard work is going on at home, 

remember to be good to your parents and not to moan!

Spend some time with your family,

doing lots of wonderful activities.

There's an endless list of things you can do,

Cooking, cleaning and exercise to name but a few.

We look forward to speaking to you soon,

but for two weeks it's goodbye.

Don't forget- after every storm,

comes a rainbow in the sky!

Here are just some of the things to look forward to this year:

-swimming lessons

-earning your pen licence

-school trips

-class assemblies

-Easter production 

-Forest Schools

-The Year 4 Sleepover 

At Harlyn, we fully understand and support the idea that education and enjoyment go hand in hand. However, our expectations are extremely high for achievement, behaviour and uniform. Work hard and play hard!

If you have any concerns, always speak to your child's class teacher in the first instance- most issues can be dealt with effectively this way. Should you have further concerns, please make an appointment to see Mr Butler. This can be done via Mrs Harris  in the school office. We are happy and willing to do all that we can to support everyone.
