Hello and welcome to Year 3 and Lower Key Stage 2!

Timetable

You can find your child's class timetable below. Please note that on Monday mornings, there is a carousel of activities including PE, PSHE and Library. Please ensure that your child has their library book on this day. 

PE takes place on different days for each class. The children should wear their PE kit to school which includes black trainers, black shorts/jogging bottoms, white t-shirt and red jumper. Please ensure that they have suitable clothing for going outdoors in cold and wet weather as well as a sunhat and water bottle in the warmer months. 

Please see below for your child's PE days:

  • 3MT - Mondays and Tuesdays
  • 3MA - Mondays and Wednesdays
  • 3RB - Mondays and Thursdays

Curriculum

In Year 3, we value a broad and balanced curriculum, enriched with practical and experiential learning opportunities. We work hard to deliver engaging and creative lessons whilst remaining focused on meeting the high expectations of the National Curriculum. We believe in developing the whole child and enabling all children to experience success and feel valued. For more information on our curiculum, you can find the year 3 curriculum overview attached below. 

Homework

Homework will be set each week on a Friday and should be completed by the following Thursday. Homework will consist of weekly spellings set on Spelling Shed, Times Table Rock Stars practice and MyMaths. Your child should continue to read at home everyday and this can become more independent as their confidence grows. Please make use of the reading diaries to record what they have read.
