At the bottom of the page you will find the children's class blog- A weekly update of all the exciting things that happen within Year 3! Enjoy!
Reading Books
Every child in Year 3 will have a reading book and we encourage them to read with an adult at home. We will visit the library weekly and children will bring home their choice of a library book. Please ensure that their reading books and reading records are in school each and every day as we will be reading with each child throughout the week. Every time a child reads with an adult, they will receive a stamp on their reading chart, which will earn them certificates and book prizes.
P.E Days
Year 3 will have PE once a week, however, the day may change. Please ensure that your child has their P.E kit at school every day. Hair should be tied up and earrings MUST be removed on these days. Your child will not be able to join in with P.E if they have earrings in.
The parent's guide for Mirodo is helpful to answer any questions you may have.

This week we have been reading Greek Myths in English. We
read Theseus and the Minotaur. We were surprised to see the
King gave seven boys and seven girls to be fed to the
Minotaur. Theseus decided to battle the beast instead! We
also explored the settings of a Greek Myth and used
expanded noun phrases, prepositions and similes to describe
them.
In Maths, we started to learn about money and solved some
money problems.
In History this week we have been looking at monuments. We
explored some that are around the world and some that are
closer to home. For example the Basildon sign on the A127.
We discovered the Taj Mahal was built in memory of an
emperor’s wife, the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France
and the London Eye was in celebration of the new
millennium.
During our PSHE lessons this week, we discussed our dreams
and goals for the future. We thought carefully about what
this includes – Determination, patience, hard work and if first
you don’t succeed, try again!
