Dear Parents and Carers, 

We are writing to update you about a situation involving a fire at a nearby residential property within the last hour. Please be assured that all children are safe and well. 

The school day is continuing as normal with some small adjustments. 

Collection Options 

If you would like to collect your child early, you are welcome to do so.  

Please note that Wymering Road is currently closed, so vehicle access is limited. We ask that you do not drive up to the school – please walk. Porchester Road is open for access if driving is essential. 

If possible, park safely nearby and walk to the gates next to the school entrance. Staff will be available to assist with collection. Please be mindful, your child may have not collected all their belongings.  

For Children Staying in School 

For those remaining at school, we have planned a range of supervised activities to keep children engaged and comfortable for the rest of the day. 

Normal dismissal will take place at the usual time, unless we advise otherwise. Please be mindful of the above road closure.  

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. If you have any questions, please contact the school office. 

Kind regards, 
Jack Jones 
Headteacher 

 

Year 4

Hello and welcome to Year 4

At New Horizons Primary School we have 2 rights.

  • The right to be safe and the responsibility to follow school and classroom rules.
  • The right to learn and the responsibility to use our learning heroes.

Reading and Writing 

Children in Year 4 may listen to and discuss a variety of stories, non- fiction texts, poetry, plays and textbooks in order to understand that texts are structured in different ways and written for different purposes.

In Year 4, your child will work on ironing out any Standard English mistakes such as ‘I were’ instead of ‘I was’, ‘I did’ instead of ‘I done’ and using apostrophes to mark plural possession.
