Neptune class

Welcome to the New School year!

We warmly welcome our new pupils who have moved up from year 2 as well as our returning pupils to Neptune class.  Mrs Green will be the class teacher on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Mr Saye will teach on Thursday and Friday.  Mrs Sparkes and Mrs Cutting will be supporting the class during the week.

We will be spending the Autumn term answering the topic question: ‘How did the Romans use their power to govern and rule?’ Take a look at the Topic overview for more details on what we will be covering.

PE will be on Wednesdays and Fridays, Children should wear their PE kits to school, please ensure children have appropriate clothing as we will be outside when suitable.

Homework – We ask parents to help their children complete a small amount of homework each week to support them with their class learning.  We understand that there will be times when there is not much time – the following list is designed to help you prioritise:

• Reading – Children should read to an adult a minimum of 5 times a week. If there isn’t much time, please prioritise this.
• Times tables – All children have a log in to TT rockstars, which is a fun way to learn times tables, the program gives each child an appropriate level of challenge, based on what they have already put into the program. Year 4 children will have their times table check at the end of the year, so getting some early practise in will really help them!
• Other activities – Mathletics, practise spelling and select an activity from the homework list if there is time.

Logins for your child’s accounts can be found in the reading record book but please do let us know if you have any issues logging on. Any homework completed can be uploaded to Seesaw or can be brought into class.

Seesaw is a great place for children to let us know what they have been up to outside of school.  We don’t have ‘show and tell’ as such, but, if time allows, we can share things from seesaw with the class.

If you have any questions or queries we are more than happy to help, you can catch us at the end of the day or contact us by email

Kind wishes,

The Neptune Team
