Year 3 enjoyed a fire safety talk this after from Skelmersdale fire service. We learnt about what to do in the event of a fire at home - Get out, Stay out, Call 999. We learnt we needed to know our address and call 999. We also learnt what to do if our clothes caught fire - Stop, Drop and Roll.

Year 5 are really enjoying learning how to use Keynote to design a new app for school. Looking forward to seeing the completed apps, 

It has certainly been an action packed week in Year 3, with so much going on. From exploring pixel art in Computing, light sources in Science and just enjoying time with friends in the winter sun. Roll on next week.

Year 4 enjoyed their first lesson using Scratch, in Computing. They learnt how to add a background, sprites and then write a code to make them speak to each other. Next week we will add some code to make the sprites actually speak.

What a great start to the week as Year 3 enjoyed their Jigsaw lesson in the morning for the first time. It was a lovely calming start to the week. The children enjoyed working in groups to identify the challenges that different people faced and to discuss or they thought have been the most…

Year 3 have really enjoyed their first gymnastics lesson learning lots of different shapes and also exploring some jumps. Roll on Friday mornings.

Year 3 have really enjoyed creating their 'line art' work. They experimented with different types of lines in their sketchbooks before getting creative to design a line rug. They could use a range of media including pencil, pen, pastels, felt tip, paint and wool. Love the creativity!

Christmas Party Day in Year 3. The children had great fun at their disco. They loved dancing to all the songs, including lots of Christmas classics

Year 3 continued with their Online Safety work as they talked more about trust and how trustworthy certain situations were. This was followed by some Digital Art and learning to use the shape, line and fill tool.

Year 3 have really enjoyed their second French Day learning the name of 10 animals in French. We have learnt to read, write and speak in French and enjoyed lots of games. We particularly enjoyed some games on the iPads and chromebooks. 

Year 3 worked hard today in English as they had to spot the features of persuasive texts. I think they all want to go to Alton Towers now!!!

Year 3 are busy with their new English unit on persuasive texts. We have read a model text and learnt the new non fiction shapes that will help us to write our own. We then had an experience day lesson to learn all about Skara Brae - a Stone Age settlement.
