Welcome to Year 3!

We are also known as Owls Class.

  • Class Teacher: Mrs Lewis

  • Teaching Assistant: Mrs Ali

Key Information & Routines

  • PE Days: Our PE day is Wednesday. Please ensure your child comes with their full PE kit, including pumps. PE kits are stored in the cloakroom and will be sent home at the end of each half-term to be washed.

  • Earrings & Jewellery: If your child has pierced ears, please remove their earrings before school on PE days, or ensure they are covered with plaster tape.

  • Water Bottles: Please send your child to school with a named water bottle every day. Bottles must be taken home and washed each evening.

Homework

  • Times Table Rock Stars: Children need to spend 20 minutes a week practicing their times table, focusing on 3, 4 and 8. 

  • Reading Books: Reading books and Home Reading Journals need to be brought to school every day, as children read with staff multiple times per week. Children may choose a new book once they have finished their current one and their journal has been signed at least three times by an adult at home.

  • Optional homework is shared via ClassDojo at the start of each half-term. We love seeing what the children create and explore at home!

A Typical Day in Year 3

  • Mornings: SHINE, Spelling & Handwriting, Guided Reading, Maths, and Literacy.

  • Afternoons: Worship, Key Skills, and Wider Curriculum subjects (Art, PE, Science, French, History, Geography, PSHE, RE, and Design Technology).

Growth Mindset

In Year 3, we encourage our children to become independent, resilient learners who embrace the power of "Yet." We understand that learning can be challenging and that we might not master something straight away — yet! With practice, effort, and perseverance, we continue to make wonderful progress. We celebrate this growth through house points and certificates as every child strives to be the best they can be.

Our Learning Journey

Take a look at our curriculum map below to see what we will be learning across each subject over the course of the year. Keep an eye on this page for photos and updates showcasing our learning in action!

Celebrating Success

Each week, we award up to 4 certificates to children who demonstrate fantastic progress or a great attitude towards Reading, Writing, Maths, or our Christian Value of Love. We also celebrate key Dojo milestones with certificates and badges every Friday morning!
