Year 3

Welcome to Year 3

Welcome back and we hope you have enjoyed a lovely break.

We are really excited to be teaching you next year!

Mr Parker will be teaching Miss Holland’s class on a Monday.

Together, we can’t wait to see all the amazing things you’ll achieve this year. We’re looking forward to a fun, engaging and successful year ahead!

Routines

In year 3 our P.E days are Monday (indoor) and Thursday (outdoor).

We ask that children come to school wearing their P.E kits, which they will remain in for the day.

Please ensure that your child has a pair of plimsolls to wear in class so that our classrooms can be kept tidy and well organised learning spaces. Thank you.

Pack lunch boxes can be placed on the trolley in the cloakroom. Don’t forget a healthy snack at break time!

Equipment

As our cloakroom isn’t the largest, please ensure that your P.E bags are a simple rucksack / drawstring bag. Make sure you have a water bottle and book bag to bring into the classroom.

We request that children do not bring pencil cases to school. As we will provide writing and colouring equipment, we find they only add to distraction and upset!

Reading

We will be sending planners where children will be recording their reading (at the front) as well as their spelling practice (at the back).

To continue encouraging a love for reading, we would love your child to be reading to an adult on a minimum of three occasions a week, recorded in the planner and signed by an adult. Similarly to KS1, the children will receive house points rather than stamps as an incentive.
