As part of worship this morning, Year 3 prepared their station for our prayer space day on Friday. We have been assigned the station of Gethsemane Help. We collected soil for our own mini Gardens of Gethsemane and discussed what Jesus did in the Garden of Gethsemane during Holy Week.
In PE, Year 3 read a map to locate the orienteering markers. We worked in groups to work out where each marker was and recorded it. Year 3 are really enjoying their orienteering unit in PE this half term.
In Science, Year 3 completed a scientific investigation to measure the strength of different magnets. We predicted which magnet would be the most strongest.
We then tested the different magnets and recorded the results.
Year Three produced a video thinking about grammar. We wrote down all we knew about Forces and Magnets and invited Mrs Wells, our science lead, to observe our presentations on all we know about Forces and Magnets.
Year 3 and 4, as part of their worship challenge, ran for resilience. We have been looking at how Jesus was resilient so we tried to exhibit resilience by pushing ourselves and being resilient whilst running laps of our school yard!
Today, Year 3 visited the library to change our books. We read for pleasure and listened to Catherine read us some lovely stories. We loved it so much we have already booked in our next library trip! Jarrow Focus Library is open all year round, Monday to Saturday. Please visit the library for your free library card to develop your love of reading or to start your reading journey regardless of your age or reading ability!
This afternoon, Year 3 had a visit from Father David. He kindly answered the questions that we wrote for him and answered our big question ‘Do the choices of Christians reflect what kind of world Jesus wanted?’ Father David responded, “Jesus says to love God and to love other people and my job is doing that. We worship God and help people to worship God. I help people, I am kind to people and help organisations to help the community.”
In Spanish, year 3 were practicing where they were from in Spanish. We got to choose any country that we wanted to say. Thank you Mr Rundle.
Some of our gorgeous children took part in a Para Talent Football Festival this morning! Wow, they had a jam-packed morning filled with so much football, games and shooting! They played 2 vs 2 games, matches and some dribbling and control games ⚽️ We represented St Oz so well ☺️ .
Today, Year 3 went to Miss Riley’s allotment as a precursor to our Greenhouses topic in Summer Term. We had so much fun exploring the allotment and analysing the structures of the greenhouses.
