Year 3

Welcome to Year 3!

The class teacher in Year 3 is Ms Brown apart from on Wednesday morning when the children will have Spanish lessons and Outdoor P.E. We are lucky to be supported by our lovely TA Mrs Gardener. Our PE days are Wednesday and Thursday so please come into school in your PE kit on these days.

We have some exciting topic days and trips planned for the year so I am looking forward to lots of creative learning. Please encourage your child to bring in any books or objects of interest that relate to our topic as we would love to share them with the class.
