Year 3 had a fun filled morning during their transition. We completed an orienteering task based on our Science topic where we identified all the stages of a plant’s life cycle, and then worked out the correct order to put them in.

Lots of Year 3 children have been cooking at home as part of their homework recently. Mrs Conway is so impressed!

On Wednesday, Year 3 joined other schools from South Tyneside to take part in the first Outdoor Adventurous Activity Festival and it was brilliant. We worked in teams to find clues, solve puzzles and take on challenges all within South Marine Park in South Shields.

It was Jubilee jubilations everywhere today. Year 3 have had a fantastic day!

Yesterday we celebrated the Queen’s 70 years on the throne by learning Elgar’s Land of Hope and Glory. After some sustained listening and reading of staff notation they took to the glockenspiels. Next, Matthew showed us his piano skills and gave a great introduction for when we performed in the hall.

“Best day ever” was heard a few times in Year 3 today and we were so proud of how they interviewed and took part in the activities with our volunteers. We’ve had an FA kit designer, a chef, a pharmacist, a radiologist to name just a few. The sky is the limit Year 3!

Year 3 said ‘au revoir’ to their French Food and Nutrition learning after a jam-packed couple of weeks. Well done Year 3!

On Wednesday morning Year 3 were making comparative observations during transition. We placed flowers into water mixed with food colouring to test the speed of water transportation. The flowers were all in different conditions. We began our observations and we are looking forward to seeing the end result.
