Welcome to Year 4!
2021-2022
We are very excited for the year ahead! Hopefully, there will be no disruptions and we can get on and enjoy our year together. In our classrooms, you will find a happy learning environment where all children are actively engaged in a creative and stimulating environment built upon a strong foundation of our Catholic faith.
In Year 4, children are growing and learning more and more each day as we strive to develop our learning skills and deepen our understanding of the world around us. Our Catholic faith is very important to us and we always keep Christ at the centre of everything we do. At all times, we think about how our words and actions play an important role in contributing to a peaceful and happy learning environment, as well as, helping us to set a good example to our younger friends in the school.
Please take a look at the curriculum overviews to see what we will be learning this year.
Year 4 had a wonderful day out at Blakesley Hall.
We are working so hard to learn our times tables.
Today we had a times tables quiz in class.
All that practice on TTRS is worth it as we are making great progress!

We are really enjoying our Art lessons with Mrs Parker. This week we have been focusing on drawing backgrounds, foregrounds, and middle grounds. Look at some of our fabulous work.
Year 4 had a wonderful day out exploring God's creation at the Botanical Gardens in Edgbaston.
Vocations Day
Sunday 25th April was Vocations Sunday. We marked the occasion by dressing up as what we want to be when we are older as a way of thinking about what God is calling us to be.
Thank you to all of the parents and family members that came to join us for our Digestive System Inspire workshop. We all had a great time!
On Monday 25th September, West Midlands Fire Service came into Year 4 to teach us about what to do if there was a fire in our house. They taught us lots of facts and we were tested at the end with a quiz – we passed! Thank you for taking the time to come and see us at St Brigid’s.
Year 4 Maths Competition
On Friday 22nd September, four Year 4 took part in a Maths Competition at King Edward's Boys School. The children completed two rounds of complex Maths and used reasoning to solve problems. They were brilliant and we came third out of 12 schools. We will have to wait and see if it is enough to get through to the next round. Well done children; we are very proud of you!
We are learning about how sound is made. We tested different objects and observed how the sound was made. We tested the effect that a tuning fork had on water. This helped us to see that sound is made from vibrations.
1017 and all that! We met Chip who taught us about what life was like in 1017. We listen to stories around the fire and even got to try some Mead!!
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
