Year 4 Sycamore and Holly

Welcome to Year 4!

Sycamore and Holly Classes

The Class Teacher for Sycamore Class is Miss Hannah Crawley, who is supported by Miss Amy McDowall (Student), Teaching Assistant Mrs Ellen Young (Monday to Wednesday) and Mrs Rebecca Baxter (Thursday and Friday). The Class Teacher for Holly Class is Mrs Jemima Scott, who is supported by Teaching Assistants Mrs Tilly Clapham (Monday to Wednesday) and Mrs Caroline Smith (Thursday and Friday).

During the school year, the cross-curricular topics cover the Romans, the geography of Britain, Vikings and Saxons, India and France. Learning outside the classroom provides wonderful experiences and opportunities for the children to participate in their topic learning. We enjoy a Roman day, an Anglo-Saxon Day and practise our map-reading skills in Knole Park. In Year 4, we aim to develop children’s awareness of world issues and encourage learning for life.

Throughout the year, the science curriculum covers sound, electricity, the digestive system and teeth, living things and habitats and states of matter and these areas are also linked to the current topic where possible.
