Year 4

Welcome to Year 4.

In our classroom you will find a happy learning environment where all children are encouraged and engaged in their learning in order to reach their full potential.

Our Catholic Faith is very important to us and we strive to ensure that we live out our Mission Statement to the best of our ability every day. We lead whole school masses every term as well as class assemblies.

This year we have introduced a class liturgy where a small group of children prepare a short liturgy for the class and their parents. These have allowed for a beautiful, prayerful time at the end of a busy week. During October we invite parents to join us in praying the Rosary in our Marian garden.

Our faith permeates all that we do in school both through our lessons and how we behave and respond to each other in our daily lives. Our prayer table is the focal point of our classroom which we continually update to reflect the Liturgical calendar throughout the year.

Children enjoy a broad curriculum in Year 4 where we aim to be provide a balanced and creative curriculum that caters to the needs of all the children. We work hard in Year 4 but also have lots of fun!

Our work this year will be led by our topic work. We will study World War 1, Rivers and Mountains, and The Environment. We will hopefully be going on lots of visits to help with our understanding of each topic.

We also love ICT in Year 4 and use our laptops and ipads to learn many new skills and support our learning in other areas of the curriculum. We have developed our musical skills this year by learning to play the recorder and taking part in the Jessons Music Festival. We will also be taking the main roles in the Key Stage 2 production this year.

Year 4 continue their swimming lessons that they began in Year 3 and strive to achieve their 25m certificates by the time we finish lessons in February.

The Year 4 team look forward to meeting you.
