Year 3 – FYI: Friday Orienteering

Each Friday afternoon, Year 3 will be accessing our outdoor orienteering scheme in the school grounds. Please can you ensure your child wears appropriate footwear and coat/jacket depending on the weather. This starts tomorrow so please consider that the grass may be wet and it may rain following today’s change in weather.

Thank you for your continued support 🙂

KS2 Sports Day

Just a reminder to parents and carers about our KS2 sports day. Sports day will be on Tuesday 10th June on the KS2 field. Gates will be open from 12:50. Please enter through the main entrance on Middlebrook Lane. We are hoping to start at 1pm and finish before the end of the school day. There will also be refreshments on sale.

Children can come to school in their PE kits on Tuesday. Please make sure that all children wear trainers.

We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday afternoon!

Year 3 – Product in the Park: Lest We Forget

What a beautiful day for a walk to the park! Today, Year 3 have popped down to Thorne Memorial Park to visit their beautiful remembrance display boards which were produced for our Autumn Expedition, Lest We Forget: How Does War Change Lives? The boards show our digital artwork alongside a biography of the soldiers and people they commemorate, as well as a selection of the children’s poetry about the blitz.

We are so proud of the beautiful work that is displayed here and the message that they present. Why not take a visit to the park over the half-term holiday and enjoy taking in the the boards for yourself?

Year 3 – Telling the Time Homework for Half Term

In Maths, we have been learning all about time. Children have recapped telling the time to 15 and 5 minutes on an analogue clock from Year 2 and we have extended this to read the time to any minutes past or to the hour. To help consolidate this learning please find some homework below that you could do at home over the half-term holiday. There will be 100 HoWL points for anyone completing the homework!

And, don’t forget, you can still practise telling the time just by looking at any clocks that you come across – anywhere! Why not challenge yourself to read the time every time you see a clock or a watch? Can you get quicker at doing this by the end of the week?!

Telling the time to 5 minutes – 3 levels of challenge! (includes answers)

Class 9 | Expert Visitor

A massive thank you to Andy who took the time to come in and speak to the class all about his job and his love for rocks! The children were so engaged with the session and loved getting to examine some of the different rocks that were brought in! What a fantastic way to introduce the children to our next case study!
