Year 3

Our children have helped fill a Volvo estate full of food kindly donated by our children as part of our Harvest giving.  We are really trying to express our value of responsibility in as many practical ways as possible. This year we wanted to provide a bumper delivery of food although we support throughout the food bank […]

What a wild and exciting week we’ve had here in year 3! On Monday Mrs Thomas was in with us, and we had a great time getting near the end of finishing off our rainforest dioramas – they’re looking fab! From Tuesday, Mrs Gates has been with us and we have started the tough topic […]

Another busy week in Year 3 this week, and October has well and truly arrived bringing the autumnal weather with it. At the end of last week, we saw one of the butterflies emerge from its chrysalis – very exciting! Over the weekend, the other four emerged and we fed them some soft, juicy fruit […]

Year 3 spent a lovely sunny morning navigating their way around Kirkby.  They had to read maps and follow a route around the town. They painted the famous ‘Ruskin’s View’ and then they plotted the different types of shops in the town. The children were very well behaved and created some amazing pictures.
