To begin Autumn term in Year 3, our first topic is 'Early Humans'. We will be learning all about the Stone Age, leading to the Bronze and Iron Age. Please see the 'Files' section for more curriculum information.

General Information

The Year 3 staff team includes Ms. Cook (teaching Mondays & Tuesdays), Miss. Bewers (teaching Wednesdays, Thursdays & Fridays) and Mrs. Rance, Mrs. Barber & Mrs, Harle (supporting individuals, small groups or the whole class throughout the week). Please feel free to speak to any member of the team during drop-off and pick-up, or email using the address above.

PE

PE lessons this half term will be on Wednesday and Thursday.

To avoid bringing lots of things to and from school, we ask that on PE days, children come to school dressed in their PE kit.

Please ensure that long hair is tied back and that earrings are removed or covered.

Reading

Reading books and diaries should be sent into school every day.   Please sign your child's reading record when you listen to them read.  We expect at least 3 reads at home per week to be recorded. Your child can change their reading book on any day.  

Book bags

Please ensure the only things the bag contains are lunch/snack, water bottles and reading books/reading records.

Homework

There will be a piece of written English and Maths set each week.   It will be set on a Wednesday to be completed by the following Monday. 

Online homework tasks:

                                     TT Rockstars (2x5 mins)

                                     Spelling Shed (2 games) 

Every week, we will award Praise Points for completing this homework.
