Year 3 enjoyed a visit to the brilliant Open Zone at the Word today. The children used various apps to create wonderful animated movies. I’m sure we’ll have some future creative movie producers!
Sharing stories for Storytelling Week
Storytelling Week
During Storytelling Week, our pupils teamed up across different classes for some shared reading. Children of different ages took turns exploring exciting tales together. It was a wonderful way to spend time together and celebrate the joy of books. What lovely reading we heard, too! 📚✨
Y3- Our Journeys!
The Y3 children shared a thoughtful and reflective Celebration of the Word today with their families. They described their own personal journeys with their favourite interests; while acknowledging the supportive family members who guide them and share the joy of their experiences.
Y3 Celebrating Chinese New Year & National Story Telling Week at the Word!
The Y3 children had a great morning at the Word celebrating both Chinese New Year & National Story Telling Week. Firstly, the children enjoyed being read David Walliams’ brilliant story, ‘There’s a Snake in my School.’ Afterwards, they used their creative skills to design and make wonderful Chinese lanterns. Finally, the children changed their books, before eagerly starting the first few pages of their exciting new stories.
Times Tables Rock Stars – Battle of the Bands Tournament
Well done to all the children who took part in our recent Whole School Girls vs Boys Battle of the Bands tournament on Times Tables Rock-Stars.
Overall, the Boys won the tournament but there were some very dedicated, hard-working children trying their best to score the most points!
The top 3 girls and the top 3 boys had a chance to show their “Rock’n’Roll” side for their winners photographs.
Congratulations to them all and well done!

Our New Year 3 Reading Ambassadors!
The Reading Ambassadors were delighted to welcome some new members last week. Some Year 3 pupils have joined the team and are ready to get started. We have a lot of children keen to join the group so we will make this a position that is changed yearly from now on, so that more pupils can have the opportunity to join.
Well done Year 3 recruits! I can’t wait to hear your ideas to promote reading in our school.

Y3 Skipping Into Christmas!!
Y3 enjoyed a wonderful morning developing individual, pairs and team skipping skills with Chris Corcoran from ‘Skipping School’. The children had a great time, while enjoying lots of festive, Christmas songs. Thank you to our wonderful helpers for supporting the children throughout the morning and swinging plenty of skipping ropes!
A Magical Visit from Father Christmas
Today was full of Christmas magic as we celebrated Christmas Pyjama Day! The children arrived in their cosiest pyjamas, ready for a day of festive fun.
We gathered around the Christmas tree for a special storytime when, to our amazement, Father Christmas himself made a surprise appearance! The excitement was electric as he joined us by the tree to share one of his favourite stories, The Gruffalo.
After the story, Father Christmas answered some of the children’s curious questions—there were plenty! The children couldn’t wait to tell him all about the mischief their naughty elves had been causing at home.
It was a truly magical moment! Thank you, Father Christmas, for making our day so special!
Year 3 Advent Drama- Preparing For the Visit of Jesus!
After reading scripture from the prophet Isaiah, Year 3 have been working in drama groups to demonstrate how we should behave during Advent, as we prepare for Christmas. We explored and depicted giving alms to the homeless, looking after the elderly, praying regularly to talk to God, showing love in our friendship groups and showing understanding with our friends. All of the children collaborated and showed excellent oracy skills with their friends.
Y3 History Debate – When was the Greatest Age in Prehistory to live – Stone, Bronze or Iron?
The young historians in Y3 took part in an oracy session, where they took sides and respectfully debated the advantages and disadvantages of living in each period in Prehistory ( considering the changes that had occurred). They came up with many logical arguments, that they bravely stood up to articulate with confidence to the group. They listened, understood and then responded to the view of their fellow historians.
It proved to be a great session, where the children not only thought like historians, but also spoke like ones too. They then went on to write a response to the question with the disciplinary knowledge they had developed from the debating lesson.
