Sharing Spy stories with Year 3!

by Mrs Blomeley
Jan 10, 2025

During their Spy topic, Year 5 worked extremely hard to perfect their Spy Narratives, which they wrote with Year 3 as their audience. They created spies, villains and suitable settings for their adventures to take place! Children from Year 3 enjoyed the story telling and they had the opportunity afterwards to identify the characters from the drawings that Year 5 had drawn! Thank you everyone for being such brilliant writers and listeners! Mrs Blomeley

This half term our topic is 'What makes Earth angry?' We will explore how natural disasters like volcanoes, earthquakes and tornadoes occur. As part of our creative homework task children may make a volcano model and bring this into school by Friday 7th February. Can you make your volcano erupt?

Please see our topic information attached to see what we will learn about in every subject this half term. Please also see the attached Home Learning Grid with activities to complete at home.

Happy Christmas Year 3!

Year 3 had such a fun trip out today. We learned so much more about the Stone Age to Iron Age. We made fires, went gathering, did some farming using Stone Age tools, polished a hammerhead, made flour, practised making a wattle and daub wall and so much more.

Can you spot our cheeky helper Barry the elf?

We have loved our Stone Age topic in year 3 and everyone is delighted with their finished cave paintings. I will display all of the work for everyone to see.

Today we had the opportunity to experience painting like a real cave person. We used natural resources like charcoal and fruits to create our art work. We even had a go at experiencing what it was like to paint in a cave by painting under our tables.
