Year 3 went on their final library trip, this year, last week. Unfortunately, Catherine was not in but our lovely Mrs Chamberlain filled in and read us 2 amazing stories. We can’t wait for our Year 4 library trips!
Year 3 demonstrated how well we could do breast stroke in swimming today. We then finished the session with some fun free time in the pool with it being our last session of the year!
In DT, as part of our Greenhouse topic, Year 3 have been looking at frame structures and how to make them strong and stable. We built structures out of cocktail sticks, marshmallows and blu tac and looked at how to strengthen them. We then tested if our structures were strong and stable enough to hold a carton of milk!
Year 3 had an amazing morning doing activities with our adults for Sunshine Fun Time Family Day! We created art in the style of Andy Goldsworthy, had popcorn and juice whilst reading round the campfire, painted pebbles and added them to our positivity snake and created clay faces to stick to the trees in our nature garden! Thank you to all of the staff who organised and facilitated this and thank you to our adults for coming in!
Year 3 took part in Spirited Arts day, yesterday! We looked at the story of The Good Samaritan and the messages and meaning of this story. We then created a piece of artwork to depict the messages from this and created it in the style of Pop Art!
Year 3 had an amazing time at St. Oz Fest, on Friday! We sang The Climb by Miley Cyrus linked to our value of growth and we also belted out Never Forget by Take That which links with our music mover and shaker, Gary Barlow!
Year 3 and 4 had a fantastic day at Monkton Stadium for the athletics festival today! We competed in different events across the day, including a 400m and standing long jump.
Not only that, we got to meet our schools PE mover and shaker, Steve Cram! We chatted to him about his career as an athlete and all of his achievements, including how he co-organised the Great North Run and how he still commentates and promotes athletics today.
The children were fantastic ambassadors for the school and made the staff incredibly proud with their exemplary behaviour!
Bring In A Tin To Win week is in full swing and is happenings until Friday! Children can bring in a tin/food donation for a chance to win up to 5 Ozzie Stars!
As part of our Agents of Change Worship this week, we created videos to explain what we had done to be Agents of Change and to thank everyone who has donated so far for their donations!
As part of Oracy this week, Year 3 have been looking at time management and how best to use our time. To help us with this, we created to do lists consisting of the things we needed to do for the rest of the week in school.
This week in swimming back crawl was the focus again. We took everything we learned in our first back crawl session and honed these skills to make us even more proficient in back crawl!
