This morning, we spent time with our partners looking through some of the different expedition books we have in class.

Just want to say a big thank you to sculpture club. They were fab at listening and learning about the different paper sculpture techniques this week! Check out what they have done below. A few more techniques to show them next week, but they have been set a challenge to think about what they’d like to start to make. Ensuring they apply some of these techniques to create something 3D!
Today, the children created their own Blitz artwork. We used watercolours to create the background before placing the paper silhouette of the city skyline over the top!
Year 3 will have PE on Mondays and XP Outdoors on Wednesdays. Please ensure your child has appropriate footwear and kit for these activities. If needed, children can keep a bag with their kit in on their pegs for the week but this must be taken home on Fridays each week.
Thank you, Mrs Dutton and Mr Taylor
Well done to Phoenix who has been learning about the ‘Make do and Mend’ campaign during the Second World War, where people were encouraged to repair and reuse clothing when possible. Phoenix has been practising using his mum’s sewing machine and over locker and we can’t wait to see what items he can make!
This morning, the children were getting crafty by creating World War 2 planes out of clothes pegs.
We then learnt about evacuation during the Second World War, and looked at how children would each have their own gas mask to take with them. This led to us making our very own gas mask boxes!
In the afternoon, we were lucky enough to visit Thorne Methodist Church. We imagined ourselves as evacuees and wrote letters home to our parents!
Well done to Arnie who has been creating a set of instructions on how to make a jam sandwich. This was part of his learning around evacuee children during the Second World War. Well done Arnie!
