DRAFT Year 4 Weekly Blog Friday 1st May. "Those who trust in God can do all things." St Alphonsus Liguori

Another delightful week in Year 4! This week, Isla, Marla and Patrick led a beautiful worship about Peter putting things right with Jesus, after he had denied Him 3 times. This was also what our first RE lesson of the week was based on. Children used this to inspire them to write prayers asking for faith as strong as St Peter. They recognised Jesus will be beside them ready to forgive and it is comforting to recognise that even the greatest disciple made mistakes.

In other news this week, Miss Edwards helped children understand that History can be biased, depending on who has written it. They looked at an account from the same year about the Vikings - one written by the Anglo-Saxons and one by the Vikings themselves. Of course, they were vastly different. In PE, children polished their dance from last week (see below!)

Maths has seen us dive further into fractions and also cover translation of shapes. Children are loving their English lessons based on our novel - they have been showing their great reading skills and writing character descriptions.

A Joyful thing….

In Forest school, Mrs Tierney has set up a birdbox with a camera - and we have a couple of little blue tits who have made it their home.

Holy Communion

The final Holy Communion session for children is next week - Tuesday 5th May. This is an imprtant session where they will be learning how to receive the host.

Saturday 9th May Group 1 Saturday 16th May Group 2

Please can children be dropped off at the side door - presbytery at 9:15am. This allows them to get settled and prepared before mass. You can then go and find your allocated pews in church. They will be labelled with your family name.

Holy Communion Form - Seating

I am still waiting on 6 people to fill in the form below so I can allocate seats. This is to a maximum of 12 people - however if there are more, they can be seated at the back of church.

Upcoming trips and events:

Wednesday 20th May Year 4 Streetlife Charity beach Walk.

As a class, we have talked lots about people in our society who are marginalised. Children have decided they want to collect for Streetlife - a charity for the homeless. On this day, we would like children to fill their school bags with items for Streetlife’s foodbank (eg pasta, socks, pot noodles and other light items) with the aim of carrying these to the beach- so they can see what it feels like to carry your belongings on your back! As streetlife’s colour is PURPLE, we would love it if children could wear something purple on this day - so they can wear comfortable clothes with maybe a purple top, purple cap or even a purple hair bobble.

Once on the beach, we have lots of plans to do things that link to homes and homeless - such as building a group sandcastle creation, painting pebbles and making beach collages. I am sure we will have an ice-cream too! There is no cost to this trip - other than £2 on the day for an ice-cream.

Wednesday 17th June Sport’s Day Year 3 and 4 9:15am

Friday 19th June Anglo-Saxon and Viking dress up day.

This takes place in school and children will be doing lots of things to consolidate their understanding of these two important invaders to our shores. It is always such a fun day! They will need to come to school dressed as either an Anglo-Saxon person, a Viking person, or a Viking god/ goddess, elf, giant or creature! We are giving you lots of time to plan a costume - please don’t feel you need to buy one. Here are some examples of made costumes below.

We have 2 very exciting trips in July. Although this is a way off, we thought we would give you lots of preparation time and so have popped them on parent pay early. These are:

Thursday 2nd July UCLAN Electricity in Science trip

This trip consolidates our learning in Science. The cost of the trip is £20 payable on parentpay from today

Thursday 9th July Cuerden Valley Park Rivers Trip

This is linked to our Geography unit about Rivers and is a brilliant trip to discover the features of a River. This is £25 payable on parentpay from today.

Friday 3rd July St Bedes Prayer Day.

We are going to St Bedes for a day of prayer. This is a lovely chance for children to encounter their potential high school for the first time, whilst celebrating Jesus’s love.

Please let me know if there are any issues or questions.

Have a lovely weekend.

Year 4 Weekly Blog Friday 24th April "It is for each of us to learn the path by which Jesus requires us to follow Him, and to follow in that path."

We have had a lovely week in year 4. This week in our RE lessons, we learned all about the discovery of Jesus’s empty tomb by St Peter.. Children have such a good understanding of all events from Peter’s point of view. A lovely worship was led by Jude Cl, Scarlet and Henry O all about Peter’s declaration that Jesus is the Son of God. This led children to think about who they believe Jesus to be - they made crosses with their beliefs on. Our class worship was about following Jesus on the path He wants us to take. In our Communion lesson on Tuesday, children learned all about the parts of the mass - and how going to church is their way of connecting to Jesus each Sunday. We practised our new song ‘God’s Greatest Gift.’

In other news this week, we have started our topic on Vikings. Children met Sven the boat builder - who looked suspiciously like Mrs Lyons! Sven told them all about why Viking boats were so effective at raiding England. Children then took this into their dance lesson in PE. In English, we have started our new novel - The Firework Maker’s Daughter and children have already written persuasive letters based on it. With Miss Edwards, children have continued their learning about sound and how it travels. We have also started fractions in maths and we are continuing symmetry in shape - our homework is based on this.

Year 4 Weekly Blog Friday 17th April "What really matters in life is that we are loved by Jesus and that we love Him in return. (St John-Paul )

What a lovely week in Year 4! Children have come back raring to go and we have had a full week of determined learners! In RE this week, children have written diaries as St Peter, expressing how he felt about events in Holy Week - especially his denial of Jesus. The following RE lesson was all about forgiveness and how it can transform our lives. In our worship this week, children have reflected on the journey on the road to Emmaus. Jesus showed that He is always by our side in our most troubling times in our lives to support us and love us. In my Happy mind, we learned about the word ‘Relate’ and how getting along with others is important.

We have also finished our block of work all about multiplication and division - onto Fractions next! We finished our History topic on the Anglo-Saxons - learning that they were plagued by Viking raiders and the threat to England was extreme - until King Alfred the Great sorted them out!

This week, we have welcomed Miss Edwards to our class. She will be doing her teaching placement here for the next 9 weeks. Here she is leading a very exciting science lesson on sound!

Friday 2nd April !Lord, by your cross and resurrection, you have set us free. You are the Saviour of the world."

A very special week in Year 4 and indeed the whole school this week - Holy week. It is hard to put into words the depth of emotion felt within school throughout this week as we witness Jesus’s journey to the cross through our class liturgies. Year 4 portrayed Jesus’s agony and trauma in the Garden of Gethsemane with such understanding and beauty. Each one knew their role and felt it keenly. We were so proud of them. After watching the Crucifixion the following day, many children were in tears because they had such compassion for Jesus’s pain and suffering. They then wrote Acrostic poems in class about how Jesus had spoken to them through this event. They were beautiful.

We have been so busy in maths this week - moving onto making numbers 10 and 100 times bigger or smaller and using this to help us solve very tricky multiplications like 56 x 7 and 147 x 8. In English, children have written some amazing stories based on our novel, ‘The Last Bear,’ and we have started a Science mini topic on Food chains.

The children have had such fun together this week - playing outdoors, going on a Easter egg hunt - which was pure joy and of course our famous Easter Egg raffle!

Friday 27th March "Through His blood, we gain our freedom - the forgiveness of our sins.

The highlight of our week was the children making their First Reconciliation in church. They were a little nervous but my goodness, they did so well. The next day at school children said they felt amazing to be sin free and I can see how much this sacrament has meant to them. It is fitting that children led a worship for the class this week all about Jesus agony in the garden of Gethsemane. This was beautiful - well done Vincent, Luca and Barnaby. Children really understand the depth of feeling of this traumatic event for Jesus and His disciples and you will see this portrayed in our class assembly. They also this week learned about DR. Ruth Pfau who lived out Corporal Works of Mercy by helping eradicate leprosy in Pakistan. Our RE lessons now are centred on Holy week and the charged emotions it brings.

We have loved history this week - all about the discovery of an empty grave at Sutton Hoo in East Anglia. Children had to use the evidence to figure out who must have been buried there. There is a great film about this, called ‘The Dig.’ We have also written lots of good story openings combining setting and character and have become solid on all divisibility rules in maths.

Year 4 Weekly Blog Friday 20th March "Compassion for suffering is the beginning of holiness." ((St. Maximilian Kolbe)

It has been a busy week in Year 4 and finally the sun has come out! The children have enjoyed playing on the field at long last and making daisy chains. In RE this week, children have learned about the 7 corporal works of mercy and how we can apply them in our everyday life. They have decided they want to do a charitable event for ‘Street life,’ our local homeless charity. We will be gathering ideas for this in the next few weeks. We had a beautiful worship led by Xander, Eliza and Logan on Tuesday. They helped us reflect upon the Last Supper where Jesus washed the disciples’ feet. They understood Jesus was showing that to love is to serve.

We have been writing lots of story openings in our English lessons, combining character and setting. There has been some amazing writing! Children are becoming such good spellers! On Thursday, we performed on the Grand theatre stage for our Speaking Shakespeare event. WOW! the children were incredible and so confident! They have worked so hard and have loved every minute! Here is a video taken from off stage:

Year 4weekely Blog Friday 13th March "Prayer is certainly the most wonderful medicine in the world." (St Hyacinth)

What a lovely week we have had! The highlight of our week was witnessing the baptism of Blythe and her sister patience on Wednesday. It was lovely to welcome you into the Christian family formally and celebrate afterwards too! This week in RE children learned about the parable of the sheep and the goats - or the judgement of Nations. They reflected on Jesus’s words that when helping ‘The least of these who are members of my family, you did it to me.” By helping others, Jesus feels this love too. Jesus wants us to see the need in others and reach out to them. Very aptly, the gospel we shared was about Jesus helping a blind man who was saved by his faith in Jesus. I can see the growth in your children’s faith each day - and it is a joy to behold!

In other news this week, children performed their mastering number session to lots of teachers from other schools on Thursday. They were briliant and it was our final calculation. We are GOLD! We just need those last few childen to keep going at their TT rockstars at home - they are so close! Lovely biscuits made on Thursday too.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 6th March "God's love is a spring of living water which flows constantly into the hearts of those who pray." (St. Luis De Montfort)

It has been a week of such depth and reflection in Year 4. We have learned all about the story of the Prodigal son in our RE lessons and the important message that God will forgive us and is waiting with open arms to bring us close to Him. This linked so beautifully to our Reconciliation session on Tuesday night which was about sin separating us from God and how He has given us free will to choose - good choices that spread love or bad choices that hurt others - sins. We then moved on to learn about God’s love and mercy in other ways - such as sending His only son to save us and creating the lovely world for us to cherish. Children spent time being thankful that they are a child of God who is always there to love them. Michael, Ruth and Blythe led a really special liturgy on Wednesday telling the story about the woman who was almost stoned - but Jesus said only those who had not sinned could throw - and nobody could. The children pointed out that we are all sinners and should focus on getting ourselves right before accusing others. In our HRSE session children learned to be grateful for their experiences, themselves and others.

Thank you so much for your efforts with the creative world book day costumes. We had a super day spent the talking about our own reading identities and which type of text we feel really passionate about. The children met with their partner class and read them their story.

This week, we say goodbye to Miss Cardwell. We are so proud of how she has grown as a teacher and wish her so much luck in her final placement at another school. We will really miss you.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 27th February "The invitation at the transfiguration is to listen to Jesus and to follow Him." (Pope Francis)

The Lenten season has begun in Year 4. The children began their Lenten journey by making Lenten promises - one for fasting, one for almsgiving and one to become a better person. They also swapped their Lenten boxes with their Year 2 partner. They are willing to do chores at home - and you can give them a little money for their box. All proceeds are going to CAFOD. We have spent some time in our RE lessons reflecting on how we can love like Jesus did. This is the perfect opportunity to care for others and show solidarity with all our brothers and sisters - just like Jesus did. We had a beautiful worship led by Jack, Heidi and Edward this week. It was beautiful - all about the Prodigal Son and how family is more important than money. Children inspired the class to make bidding prayers about forgiveness and true wealth. In HRSE this week, we talked about having an ‘Attitude of Gratitude,’and refelcted on how we could do a daily gratitude practice at home.

We have started our new class novel - The Last Bear, by Hannah Gold. It is a beautiful book and the depth of conversation around it so far has been amazing!

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 13th February "The true teacher is within. Christ is the inner teacher of every soul." (St Augustine)

We have had a really enjoyable week in Year 4. This week in RE children have been learning about St Damien Molokai who showed love like Jesus by reaching out to the margins of society and helping the lepers. We had such refection on how Jesus showed us we need to give extra love to those who need us more. IN HRSE we then learned about how to love others. This echoed the RE lesson and children watched videos on two charities - CAFOD and Emmaus - a charity for the homeless. We got into a great conversation about SOLIDARITY our key value we are focusing on in Year 4. We discussed a number of charities the class thought were important - but the resounding vote is that we would like to reach out to the homeless this year and raise money for a homeless charity.

Children also learned about the Sacrament of the Sick and why people might receive it. We had a lovely worship this week from Dexter, Freddie and Henry S about Peter’s profession of faith.

In other news, children had a lovely time on Wednesday - the full story of Hamlet in the morning and finishing our class novel - The Butterfly Lion. Then in the afternoon we visited St Bedes and watched Oliver- which was exceptional. Enrichment took place on Thursday where children learned sign language with Mrs Hartley.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 6th February "How good God is! In His goodness, He seeks only our happiness."

It has been a very reflective week in Year 4. At the beginning of the week, we learned about how Jesus reached out to the margins of society and showed people that we should love everyone - celebrating differences rather than being afraid of them. Our HRSE lesson backed this up - as we learned about laws in our society - especially the Equality act which celebrates diversity. We looked at British values and how these compare to our Catholic Social Teaching values. Then Bella, Sasha and Bonnie did a beautiful worship about The Presentation of Jesus in the temple, where Simeon recognised Jesus as the ‘Light of the World.’ Our word of the week has been light, and in the gospel this week, Jesus asked us to let the light of the Holy Spirit shine within us. Children made promises to let the goodness of Jesus shine through them. Today, they started learning about the sacrament of Reconciliation and what to do if they forget to follow the light of Christ.

In other news, children have been doing many Shakespeare scenes together about the love between Hamlet and Ophelia. Very complex but children performed with such understanding and their reading comprehension is coming on in leaps and bounds! They have learned about digestion in Science and different environmental regions in Geography. Maths is all about Perimeter. Here are some pictures of last week in forest school and our lovely week this week.

Conversation starters

HRSE/RE

Why do we have rules and laws? Why is it important for everyone to have rights? How did Jesus treat everyone?

Geography

Can you remember the environmental regions? Which one do we live in?

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 30th January "Whoever possesses God is Happy." (St Augustine)

What a lovely week we have had. In RE this week, children have learned more about the Messiah and the signs He gave to John the Baptist. They have reflected on why Jesus did miracles and what may have happened if He didn’t. They then reflected on their own faith when looking at the story of Peter following Jesus to walk on water. Children wrote comments like, “When I feel like I may sink in my life, Jesus is there to save me.” Isla, Patrick and Eliza did a beautiful worship on this story on Tuesday. In my Happy mind, they have thought about how to grow their strengths that may not be as strong as others.

Also this week, children learned about the love between Hamlet and Ophelia. They described the ghost of the dead king using similes and in Science, they have found out all about different animals’ teeth.Add to that their lovely experience in forest school today, which reinforced our learning about the water cycle and it has been a very exciting week!

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 23rd January "Whatever gifts and talents we are given by God ,are to be shared with the entire community." (St Baldwin of Canterbury)

It has been a very reflective week in year 4. In our Happy Mind sessions this week, we have thought about our character strengths and how we can use them for the benefit of others. In worship this week, they listened to the story of Jesus calling His first disciples and how we can become disciples of Christ. Also, on Tuesday, Marla, Elsie and Jacob led a lovely worship all about Jesus healing Peter’s Mother in law. They are deepening their understanding of their own beliefs in RE as they reflect upon the catholic statement of belief - the Nicene Creed. This is perfect as they will soon be on a sacramental journey towards Reconciliation and then Holy Communion. I have put dates below - please email me if there are any issues.

Also this week, we have delved further into Shakepseare whilst also developing our oracy skills. Children have learned the skill of probing when listening in a conversation. They have been reading much of Shakespeare’s writing independently and actinigi t out too - complete with ghost! Children have learned about digestion in the mouth - in Science and the Water Cycle in Geography.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 16th January "Example makes a much greater impression on the mind and heart, than just words." (St John the Baptist De La Salle)

What a great week we have had in Year 4. This week, we were led in worship by Jude C, Halle and Wren. They helped the class reflect upon the Epiphany and reminded us that Jesus will always be the King of our Hearts. In RE lessons we have learned that Jesus is the awaited Messiah. However, He is not the Messiah that the Jewish people were expecting really - instead he showed us he was a Loving Leader, a healer, a Forgiving Saviour, a protector and a comforter. Children highlighted this in their work, which was thoughtful and referred to scripture.

Also this week, we have launched our Shakespeare play - Hamlet. Children are enjoying learning ‘on their feet,’ and using the words of the Bard to inspire them. It is a story of intrigue, deception and murder! We have a very dramatic lot! Children have acted out the first scene where the guards are on the castle battlements and are scared because they hear a ghost. They have done amazing setting descriptions in their books.

Miss Cardwell our student, taught a lovely lesson all about teeth in Science this week and children can identify the 4 main types and their special jobs. They have been learning to calculate thousands numbers easily by being able to count up and down in 200’s, 250’s 500’s and 100’s. Ask them what 2750 +500 is. Can they do it mentally?

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 9th January 2026 "Yesterday has gone. Tomorrow is yet to come. We have only today - Let us begin. (St Teresa of Calcutta)

I hope you have all had a very happy Christmas and New Year. Children have come back raring to go! This week, in worship they have thought about making a fresh start. They have made new year resolutions of how they can become the best versions of themselves and follow Christ’s light. This week in our RE lessons, we have been focusing on Peter recognising Jesus as the Christ - the chosen one everyone had been waiting for. We have also recognised Jesus as ‘incarnate’ meaning God made man and thought about His qualities which prove He is fully human and fully God at the same time. We ended up in a very deep conversation about Jesus always being there as God and the start of all creation! Children have also worked hard planning their group worships for this term.

This week children have been putting all their English skills to good use - writing the story of ‘The Little Match Girl,’ a sad fairy tale set on New Year’s Eve. Next week we are starting Hamlet - Shakespeare. They have learned all about condensation in Science and to finish last half term’s history topic, they have been learning about other Ancient civilisations, like the Shang Dynasty and the Indus Valley civilisation.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 19th December Merry Christmas everyone!

What a beautiful week we have had in Year 4 and as a whole school! It has been a week of Christmas fun and also really deep reflection about the birth of Jesus and what this means for the world. In RE this week, children have thought about the type of King Christ is and how unlike a typical earthly king He is. Children recognised him as our ‘Servant King,’ who was full of humility and compassion for others. He taught us to lead is to serve. The conversations we have in class often leave me in awe of their deep understanding of their faith. They truly use Jesus as their role model.

Speaking of awe again, children sang like angels on the altar in their carol concert on Tuesday. What a team effort - they have been so calm and focused on giving this gift to you.

We have been on our pilgrimage with Year 2 around our nativity stations - and again children were so reverent.

The rest of the week has been so JOYOUS! The Christmas party rocked! The Christmas cards made are beautiful! Christmas spirit was in abundance at the raffle and in class with our Christmas film and crafts.

It is a privilege to serve your children and their growth in one term has been astounding. I cannot wait to see what is next!

Sadly, we will be saying goodbye to our dear Miss Slater, who I know is so popular with the children because of her calm, kind manner. She will be very missed. We welcome back Mrs Carragher, who the children had in Year 1. She has spent the week with us this week, re-acquainting herself and cannot believe how independent your children are now!

We will also be welcoming a student teacher after Christmas - Miss Cardwell. Lots of new faces in the New Year.

Here is a video of our Christmas fun!

This week, the certificate winners were chosen by the children in class. They voted for Jude Cl who they said has improved so much in his work - especially with his writing and he is such a responsible, kind person. They also voted for Isla who they said is a role model. She is always instantly ready to learn and gives 100% focus to everything. She is kind, funny and tries her best all the time.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 12th December "Gaze upon Christ, consider Him, contemplate Him and desire to imitate Him. (St Clare of Assisi)

What a reflective week it has been in Year 4. This week in RE, children have been learning about the ancestry of Christ and the Jesse tree - Jesus’s family tree that traces Him all the way back to Abraham. During Advent, we reflect on all events of the bible leading up to Jesus Christ our Saviour. In the gospel liturgies this week, we learn that Jesus came to draw everyone into His love and thhis Sunday is Gaudete Sunday, which translates to Joy. We celebrate the privilege of loving Jesus and strive to imitate Him.

This week, children have had two practices in church for our Christmas Carol Service - they are doing so well and are singing with such reverence. The trickiest one is our French Silent night - be sure to practise this further sat home!

In other news: children have planned their story based on the Pied Piper - and they are writing a paragraph a day. Their description skills and crafting of sentences is really coming along. There is some super work going on. We are grappling with the possessive apostrophe in spelling - we just need to make sure we only use it for possession and not every time a word ends in s! In maths, we have looked at 3x7=21 and 6x7=42 in our mastering number. In our lessons, we have been trying hard to understand rounding 4 digit numbers ot the nearest 10, 100 and 1,000. This requires a really good understanding of number. In Science this week, we have learned about the process of evaporation - when matter changes state from liquid into gas.

Here are some pictures of our travelling nativity:

Here are some examples of our wonderful stories so far…

Well done to our amazing bakers today - what a triumph! they were beautiful. Thank you to Mrs Tierney also for our lovely forest school experience today, where we gathered round the fire and listened to a story about the Winter Solstice. We made our new year hopes and aspirations and put them on the fire to symbolise a new beginning.

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 5th December "Prepare a path for God so that He can enter your heart."(St John Baptist De La Salle)

This week in both our RE and liturgy, the focus has been on reflecting upon the messages of John the Baptist and how these relate to Advent. Children in Re reflected on how we are called by John to ‘Repent,’ in Advent and ‘Make your paths straight,’ so that we can allow God that is goodness to enter in. Children have thought about what Advent means to them and how they too can grow to be a better person towards Jesus. Our children led a beautiful worship all about the story of Jesus meeting the sisters Martha and Mary. Martha is angry because her sister is listening to Jesus whilst she does all the work. However, Jesus reminds her that Mary is doing the most important thing - listening to the Lord. It reminded us that at this busy time of year, we need to spend quiet time with God and focus on what is truly important.

In HRSE this week, children learned how to behave if there was an emergency - things like dialling 999, quick reactions, remaining calm and reassuring any injured people came up. Th

In other news: We have had a very busy week, analysing fairy tales in English and learning how to write description and dialogue. We made ice-cream in Science - by lowering the melting point of the ice - by adding salt. There were mixed results - some children ended up with milkshake and some with Mr. Whippy - but all agreed it was tasty!

Year 4 Weekly blog. Friday 28th November "Advent is like a Springtime, when everything is renewed and so is fresh and healthy." (St Teresa of Calcutta)

This week we had our whole class assembly all about Catholic Social Teaching principles and the realisation that everyone is our neighbour. We were all so proud of how the children spoke with confidence and sung so beautifully. In our RE lessons, we have looked at the prophecy of Isaiah about the coming of Jesus and the voice in the wilderness who will prepare for Him - John the Baptist. This led us onto thinking about Advent as a time for us to prepare for the coming of Jesus. Children have made Advent promises that will help them to grow in goodness, ‘make their paths straight,’ and therefore grow closer to God. Our gospel worship has focused on preparing the way for our Lord.

We had a lovely worship from the children below all about how Jesus is our shepherd who guides us and we follow. One child drew the parallel that Jesus also becomes our sacrificial lamb.

In other news: We have been on our wonderful Egyptian trip today- and also we mummified a class member today! What a super day - packed with history. Pictures to follow later tonight. We have been learning how to understand, compare and order 4 digit numbers in maths and in English have focused on our Fairy Tale - ‘The Pied Piper of Hamelin,’ practising our oracy skills of discussion, sentences with fronted adverbials and extended noun phrase sentences.In Science we have looked at different melting points of solids. In HRSE we have learned about drugs, alcohol and tobacco and how they can be harmful to our body.

Here are some lovely nativity pictures this week. You are spreading the Christmas joy!
