Class of 2025

Year 3 really #enjoyed exploring the features of castles, and finding the names for the features. We then #embraced our designing skills, and created a simple design for our future castles. 

What a lovely afternoon Year 3 had for Friendship Day. We enjoyed working with a partner to mind map kind words we would use for each other. We also had a go at writing our own ‘Kind’ acrostic poems. But we enjoyed it the most when we wrote and received anonymous kind word notes from a class mate.…

This week, Year 3 have finished off their final piece of Fossil artwork, bringing all of their drawing and printing skills together. We #enjoyed getting messy and seeing how our finished pieces look. 

Year 3 are loving learning about the Stone Age and this afternoon had a go at some cave painting, as if they were in the Stone Age.

Year 3 discussed the reasons why we wear poppies and then created their own representations of poppies, inspired by the flower art of Georgia OKeefe. These will be made into a wreath to be placed in our Victory Garden.

Year 3 loved their experience day lesson to find more about life in the Stone Age. Handling flint ✅, freeze framing Stone Age jobs ✅ and flint knapping to make an arrowhead ( using soap!!) 

Year 3 enjoyed learning all about the UK Parliament. They went on a virtual tour, learnt about debates and how voting takes place to pass new laws. They also enjoyed a game of Parliament bingo. They now know that the King, President or Emperor is not running our country!  During day 2, Year 3…

Year 3 enjoyed finding out all about the Gunpowder Plot. At first we looked at a range of sources to see what we could find out. We then used these to help piece together the events of what happened in the run up to the 5th November 1605. We then sequenced the events and wrote our own…

Spooky goings on in Year 3 as they enjoyed dressing up for Halloween Day. They loved their Halloween disco. Such a great effort with all the costumes.

What a wonderful morning in Year 3 on our ArtsMark Day. We looked at the artist, Umberto Boccioni, and then worked in his style to create a fireworks picture.

First we had to make a collage of fireworks pictures and then draw our picture.

We then painted our drawings using watercolours.…

Year 3 loved their first French day and worked so hard to learn words in French. We learnt to count to 10, say hello and goodbye, classroom instructions and how to answer, How are you ?, in French. We enjoyed games, songs and even writing in French.

Year 3 really enjoyed an introduction into Black History.  We chatted about what it is, about the past and an introduction to Mary Seacole.  Very sensible comments were given, well done! We ended with some children dancing to a song about black people changing the world. 

The children were good…
