Parent Information Night

  Hi Everyone, 

A big thank you to all those who were able to attend. We understand that it might have been a bit difficult for some people to attend due to other commitments, so we are very privileged to be able to present this to you in an online capacity as well as in person.

We would love for you to have a look through the presentation so you are informed about the ins and outs of Year Four. 

While they are very lengthy, I also ask that you take some time to reread through the Week 1 and 2 blogposts as they also contain some information that will be useful throughout this year including library times, sports clothes days, Eucharist sacrament dates and religion learning for this term.  I also ask that you review the two laptop documents - OLC laptop user agreement for at school and the laptop device information booklet document that was emailed out earlier this week by Mrs Johnson, and highly recommend taking time to talk to your child about technology use and family at home for all devices.  Please find below the link to access the powerpoint presentation and click on the hyperlink:

Year 4 Parent Information 2024

Thank you again for taking the time to go through the presentation. If you have any questions or concerns regarding the year ahead, feel free to email us. 

Maths, maths, maths!  We've started our year long learning with a bang, learning about place value, our number system and the relationships with ten.  In Year 4 the expectation is that students understand place value for 5 digit numbers and beyond.  We've also learnt a few games you can play at home with just a few dice or playing cards.  Our favourite at the moment is 'Squeeze' by Paul Swan and Michael Minas from Love Maths.  Maybe we could play a game at home with you and show you how we can squeeze you out and win using our place value knowledge and strategic thinking?  

Thank you for your support and assistance.

Kind regards,

Penny
