Year 3 2025 - 2026
Mrs Blackburn
At the heart of everything is a personalised approach to each unique individual as part of our Christian Community. The strong family ethos ensures that all children and staff feel valued, respected and grow in self-confidence. Enthusiastic and caring staff with high expectations, demonstrate care of the whole child. Through God’s guidance we encourage each and every child to
'let their light shine'
Welcome to Year 3!
I am very much looking forward to lots of exciting learning this half term.
PE Days
Our PE lesson takes place every Thursday. Children should come to school dressed in their PE kit on Thursday. As we aim to be outside whenever possible, please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for the weather so they can participate comfortably. In addition, some children will be receiving swimming lessons.
Connected Curriculum
In the first half of summer term, our learning will be inspired by the beautiful, wordless picture book Journey by Aaron Becker. This tells the tale of a lonely girl entering a new world through a portal. In addition, we will be inspired by the vocabulary of Berlie Doherty in her book Tilly Mint Tales. We will take a journey to explore the United Kingdom and read the Usborne Illustrated Atlas of Britain & Ireland by Struan Reid & Megan Cullis. These books will inspire our work across our connected curriculum.
The topic web (available to download below) provides an overview of the learning planned for this term.
All homework documents and supporting resources can be found in the tab at the top of this page.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Kind regards,
Mrs Blackburn
Our Class Charter
As a rights respecting school, we wholeheartely believe in educating children about their rights and one of the first activities completed in September is to write our Class Charter. The children choose a number of articles which they feel must be met at school. It is then discussed how the adults (duty bearers) and the pupils (rights holders) in school ensure that these rights are met. Have a look at our class charter below:
