Year 3 20-21 Christian Value: Respect

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 Mrs Lawman and our teaching assistant is Mrs Watson.  Mrs Taylor also visits us.

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!

Rewards

Good work and behaviour is rewarded in a variety of ways.

• The children can earn Golden tickets for excellent work.
• Team points are available from all members of stafffor superb behaviour.
• The children can earn glass pebbles to add to a class pot.  When the pot is full we all get a treat!
• Children can also be nominated for Friday stickers and certificates.

Our Golden rules are:

Try your best.

Be kind.

We hope you enjoy the year!
