Year Three
Hello from the Year 3 Team!
Welcome to Year 3
Hello and welcome to Year 3, Classes 7 & 8.
The Year 3 class teachers are Mrs Lynch and Mrs Cook in Class 7 and Ms Evans in Class 8. In both classes, we have a number of Teaching Assistants who will be supporting our learning each week in the mornings and afternoons.
Welcome back to school! Our topic for Term 3 is 'Gods and Mortals', which includes learning about the Ancient Greeks and exploring Greek mythology. We will be having our Ancient Greek Day on Tuesday 3rd February. The children are invited to dress as an Ancient Greek for this day if they wish to. After 'Gods and Mortals', our topic will be 'Flow'. This topic focusses on rivers and the children will be comparing different rivers across the world.
To help us celebrate our learning, we will be holding a 'success' event towards the end of Term 3. Parents/carers can come into school to share in what we have learnt. We are also proud to be able to present a Middle Years performance in Term 5. More details on this will follow closer to the time. It will be wonderful to present our singing and acting skills!
In class, we strive to be our very best and celebrate our achievements in a collaborative, supportive way. In order that we can be successful, we remember our school values which are to navigate, inspire, challenge and succeed.
If you have any questions or queries, please do ask. Please also remember to keep checking our year group page where we will be sharing photos and updates.
Thank you for your support!
Mrs Lynch, Mrs Cook and Ms Evans
