'Treat everyone you meet with dignity. Love your spiritual family. Revere God. Respect the government.‘

1 Peter 2:17

Welcome to Year 3!

Our class teacher is Mr Knowles and our teaching assistants are Miss Alcroft, Miss Parkinson and Mrs Holland.  

We aim to help every child make the jump from KS1 to KS2 as smoothly as possible.  It is a big step for the children, more responsibilities but also so many opportunities to make the most of.  Our mantra this year is

We can't do this...YET!

Our Golden rules are:

Try your best.

Be kind.

We hope you enjoy the year!

Here is some helpful information relating to the class routines:

• Spellings are  given out on a Friday to be tested the following Friday;
• our Mental Maths test is usually Monday;
• We have set PE days which are shared on our Topic Web but please ensure PE kits are in school in case of any ad-hoc PE lessons;
• Reading books are changed on a Friday however children are encouraged to change their own book if needed throughout the week.

Please feel free to get in touch if you wish to speak us, you are most welcome!
