Here you will be able to find out about the recent projects and activities we have been involved in. Look out for important class news here too!
Reading Books
We aim to read and change books with the children every day. Please ensure that your child has their reading book and journal in school every day to support their progress in reading.
Homework
Homework will be given out every Friday. We will give out Spellings, English and Maths homework.
Homework will need returning to school on a Monday however spelling homework does not need returning as children will be assessed on their spellings every Friday.
PE kits
P.E Lessons will be on a Wednesday and Thursday.
Due to Health and Safety reasons, children who do not come to school with the correct PE kit will not be able to participate in PE lessons.
Children must have a red top, black shorts or joggers and black trainers. Please do not send your child in with sports tops or patterned joggers.
If they do not have the correct kit mentioned above, children are to come to school in their school uniform with their PE kit in a bag and they can then get changed for PE before the lesson.
Children must not wear earrings for P.E lessons and long hair must be tied back.

Sponsored Walk
We have sent out letters about our annual sponsored walk that is returning on Thursday 26th May 2022!
On the back of the letter was a sponsorship form for your child to raise money for our school and for a charity chosen by school council.
This year, we will be raising money to donate to Ukraine. 30% of money raised will be sent to Ukraine and 70% of the money raised will go into school fund to be spent on the children.
We're also really excited that one parent per child can join in with our sponsored walk.

Storm Day work for home
Hi everyone,
We hope you're all okay!
We've set your some work on J2E, but just in case you can't access it, we've put it here too.
For English, take a look at the up-levelling sentences PowerPoint. Once you've finished it, have a go at up-levelling the first 4 sentences.
For maths, you've got bar model number bonds. The file name will have the amount of pages we expect you to do.
Have a good day and let's see how much work you can do.
Sorry that we're not spending the last day of this half term together, but you've all worked really hard, even when some of the days have been a bit different.
Have a great and safe half term. See you when you get back :)

Morning Year 3,
For your Geography lesson today, I would like you to watch the news on tv or watch Newsround on your devices.
I want you to write some facts about Storm Eunice.
Think about - where will the storm hit the hardest? What time storm Eunice will hit parts of the uk? what areas have got the red weather warning and why do you think they have? What weather warning is down for the West Midlands? How can you prepare and keep safe from high winds?
You can type your sentences on to j2e write or upload a photo of your work into your folder.
Hope you all have a lovely holiday and stay safe.I
Mrs Held
Christmas Stocking Sewing
The children have worked so hard the last few weeks to explore, design and create their Christmas stockings.
All children had a go at sewing their stockings together and then added some festive decorations and a loop to hang their stockings up.
Excellent work Year 3, well done!
Christmas Drama Workshop
The children have really enjoyed taking part in a Christmas workshop all about 'Twas the Night Before Christmas by the West End Theatre Company.
The children chanted the names of all of the reindeer and completed freize-frames of different scenes from the book.
Stone Age art
The children enjoyed using natural materials to create some Stone Age art, inspired by many caves around the world that were discovered to have drawings, dated to many, many years ago.
The children also used clay to create some jewellery similar to that which would have been worn during the Stone Age period.
