Welcome to Swift class page.  We are a hard working  Year 3/4 class.  Our teacher is Mrs Aland and our teaching assistant is Mrs Larcombe.  Mrs Taylor will also be working with us at times. 

Throughout the year, Mrs Edwards, Mrs Ireland, PH Sports or Mrs Farnell (our specialist music teacher) will be covering our class on Tuesday afternoons whilst we have our planning, preparation and assessment (PPA) time.

PE/Swimming

The children will have PE each Tuesday,  children should wear their PE kit to school on this day. The school PE kit is black joggers or shorts, a Plain T-shirt that is their school team colour (earth - green, fire - red, wind - yellow, water - blue) and their Paxcroft school jumper.  From January the children will have two PE sessions, day to be advised at a later date.   Year 4 children will go swimming on Thursdays up until December.  Please ensure they have a coat with them on these days. 

Home Learning

The children all have individual spelling lists to learn.  Please could you help them to learn these.  The children are encouraged to request to be tested by writing their names on the board in class.  This will earn them some house points.  They will still be tested, at some point, even if they do not request to be. Please hear your child read as often as possible and write in their reading record book.  Could reading books please be in school every day please.  The children have Mathletics and TT Rockstars log ons for maths activities which they could also access at home.
