Year 3
Welcome to our Year 3 class page!
Class Teacher - Mrs Hodgson and Miss Green
Teaching Assistant - Mrs Martin
Year 3 is such a brilliant year and we can't wait to start our learning journey with you! Your child will be transitioning from Key stage 1 into Key stage 2 which is not only a scary time but also an exciting time. In Year 3, we will be building on and developing children's previous learning in Year 2 as well as creating our own amazing learning journey along the way. Throughout the course of the year, your child will be learning about new topics and subjects and we look forward to sharing our journey with you.
Keep checking in to catch up with what the children are doing throughout the year as we will be updating our page regularly.
You can check out what we are learning this year by downloading our Curriculum Overview (the link is below).

In our Art topic, this term, we will be looking at creating gestural drawings using charcoal and chalk. We have researched and explored our artist, Edgar Degas, and expressed our thoughts and feelings about his art. We have used charcoal, rubbers and chalk to mar-make, exploring light and dark, and we have learnt about chiaroscuro. #Art
This half term, we are learning to play handball in PE.
We are practising being more accurate with our throwing and catching skills. We are learning how to intercept and dodge safely and following the in-game rules. #PE
We shared 'We are all different' as part of our Protected Characteristics learning. Psalm 13 9-11 tells us 'I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made' - we used our voices to express opinions, thoughts and interests, staying positive and resilient. #PSHE #ProtectedCharacteristics
Each week, we look at what's in the news and we respond to a 'big question', which supports our PSHE curriculum. #PSHE #PictureNews
Aspirations - we can be whatever we want to be! #PSHE #CareersAndAspirations
As our Go forth, in Prayer and Liturgy, we thought about what it means to be a pupil in Holy Spirit - we created posters to celebrate all the wonderful reasons to be a Holy Spirit pupil #PrayerAndLiturgy
We are really enjoying our Music learning so far...
We are learning a song called 'Let your spirit fly', which we think is beautiful! Listen to us practising the chorus - we even added in our own actions! Scan the QR code #Music
