Welcome to Year 3

To ensure the best quality of teaching and learning for your child, we will be encouraging everyone to read daily. Children will be asked to bring their reading book in each day and they will be supported to read independently, as a group, to the whole class and to you at home, as we know this has a huge impact on their confidence and their verbal and written language skills. We know you will support us when possible and reading for just a short while with your child in the evenings can make a huge difference to their progress throughout the year.

With regards to study time outside of school, children will receive their homework and spellings on Fridays. Homework will be returned to school on the following Wednesday and spelling tests will be given on the following Fridays.

In Year 3, we will enjoy CITY this half term which will be on Wednesdays after lunch alongside our P.E lesson on Fridays after break. Children are able to come to school wearing their P.E uniforms on those days. Please ensure your child’s P.E uniform complies with our policy as outlined on our website.

We will do our upmost to ensure your child has the most enjoyable and successful time in Year 3 and we look forward to working closely with you.

These websites will help us with our work throughout the year.
