Year 3 had a great time at sports day this afternoon.  Everyone took part in at least one race with most children taking on 2 or 3 challenges!  Here are some photos of our afternoon.

What a great day our Jubilee Picnic was! Lots of dancing and singing and some great artwork inspired by Andy Warhol was displayed too.

This week we have enjoyed hearing all about the Easter holidays and started to learn all about smuggling!

It is great to have everyone back in class after a well-deserved half-term break.  We have a wonderful new term of learning ahead, many aspects of which are focused around our topic of India including our history and geography, art, music and English.  In computing, we will be taking a journey inside a computer, whilst in science we are investigating different forces including friction and magnetic forces.  In RE, we will continue our focus on Christianity looking at Holy Week and what happened at Easter. We also have a Roman workshop day planned – thinking back to our learning last term.

In addition to this, we also have World Book Day (part of our Book Week activities) and Science Week to squeeze in too!

We are looking forward to sharing all our wonderful learning with you over the term.

Throughout term 3, the children have been learning about the Romans.  We have written stories based on the mythical tale of Romulus and Remus, created posters for a Roman Army recruitment campaign and finally we wrote an information text all about the army.  Here’s a selection of their information texts for you to browse through.  In term 4, we will be having a Roman workshop day at school which the children are all looking forward to.
