The children have been working hard during music with Mrs McNamara and have learnt how to position their fingers on the recorder and learnt how to play their first note – B. In art we have been honing our sketching and observation skills. During English we have been identifying and using persuasive language to write […]
In English we have been busy editing and improving our writing this week, using our purple pens of power. We have also used our acting skills to show how different characters feel. During maths we have been exploring place value and adding and subtracting 10 and 100. We set up a rock museum in our classroom […]
It was wonderful to welcome the children into Year 3 on Wednesday and hear about their summer holidays. I have been very impressed with how quickly they have settled into the KS2 routines – they are also all trying their best to follow the Mission Prayer values – well done Year 3. Home learning will […]
Congratulations to all the children for their efforts on sports day and thank you for coming along to support and enjoy a picnic with us on the day. We have been busy in the vegetable gardens this week, harvesting our potatoes and onions. They were delicious! There will not be any more home learning set […]
We have been keen gardeners this week, ensuring our potatoes and sunflowers are watered and weeded. We have also created Bible Story Boxes in D&t and used them to retell the parable of the Good Samaritan. Sadly we said goodbye to Miss Rolle on Wednesday but we wish her well in her first teaching post […]
This week has been full of investigations, starting with two detectives visiting our school to help us investigate and solve a crime. We learnt how to take and analyse fingerprints. We also learnt about graphology (handwriting analysis) and that the police have the sole of every shoe made in the UK. The class worked brilliantly […]
This week the children have written and illustrated wonderful poems about The Iron Man. We have explored food types and how to keep healthy in Science and in Topic we have learnt about and created our own Egyptian Cartouche’s. The children have also been learning what it means to be virtuous in RE and have […]
It was wonderful to see so many of you at our Thanks Giving Mass and at the Potters Bar Carnival. The children lead the Mass beautifully and looked great in their NHS costumes. We have focused on calculating the perimeter of shapes in maths this week and in English we have been reading The Iron […]
We have been very active and creative this week in Y3. In PE (tennis) we have learnt how to volley and in athletics we have been learning how to jump in different ways. We have applied glaze to our Egyptian plates and are looking forward to seeing the finished products next week. We are also […]
It has all been about Ancient Egypt this week in Y3. We have made Egyptian jewellery, painted Egyptian sunsets, learnt about mummification and the River Nile and finished the first stage of our Egyptian plates. After half term we will be making canopic jars – if you have any pringle tubes in your recycling bin […]
