Water Safety Week
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
This was our final week of swimming and it has been wonderful to see the amazing progress the children have made over the past two terms. Their confidence has blossomed and we hope they will continue with their lessons outside school. To finish off our swimming unit, the children took part in ‘Water Safety Week’ where they learnt some vital survival and rescue skills. Please ask your child at home if they can explain or demonstrate some of these strategies to you. Next half term we will begin an athletics unit with the YMCA.
Sewing Complete ✅

It has been a long six weeks of sewing but all the children have persevered and we have finally finished our amazing cushions! The children have all learnt how to cross stitch, create a running stitch, design, make and evaluate. You will be able to see all of the children’s final pieces on display on Parent Consultation Evenings.
Fun in the snow!
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
It has been lovely to see some snow today and the children have been desperate to get outside. We have been inside most of the day but as we approached the end of the day, we all went outside for some fun! There was certainly some competition as to who could build the biggest snowball!
World Book Day

We had a fantastic day celebrating World Book Day! We wrote character riddles, setting descriptions and took part in a ‘Poetry Slam’ which the children were amazing at! Thank you for everyone’s efforts, all of year 3 looked fantastic!
Herd Farm Trip
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
Last Friday the children enjoyed a wonderful morning at Herd Farm where they took part in a Stone Age workshop. The children took part in den building, spear throwing, exploring stone age weapons and artefacts, looking around a roundhouse and watching a fire being lit using flint and metal. The children were also very excited to meet a real life archaeologist!
