Year 3

In Science, we have been studying rocks and soil. Some Year 3 investigators went outside to take a closer look at the layers within soil. As they dug down, sieved and observed they found different horizons: humus, leaves, twigs, stones, top soil, clay and rocks. Kalani even discovered her very own…

Year 3 used their clipboards and geographical knowledge to find physical and human features of Egremont. The bonus was finding conkers as they left the castle too.

Year 3 enjoyed a wet walk to the library. It didn’t stop us from going to broaden our reading! We love new books to take home. Well done Year 3! The librarian even commented on how smart, sensible and respectful we are. True St. Bridget’s children, so proud.

We really enjoyed our encounter with birds, snakes, tarantulas, cockroaches, mice and a chameleon. 
The children were very brave and had a go at holding the animals. It was great fun.

Year 3 enjoyed creating their own sequences in gymnastics. They worked in pairs and performed it.

Year 3 voted for their class councillors after hearing individual manifestos. They made their votes in a ballot organised by Year 6. 

Year 3 had a great day at Walby Farm Park. They enjoyed playing in the wooden fort, petting the animals, exploring the huge indoor soft play, outdoor park and a tour around the farm in a tractor and trailer. We finished a fun day with ice cream

Year 3 enjoyed doing exercises with our 2 Paralympian athletes today. They did really well and had great fun. 
 

Y3 had a fantastic Sports Day this year. Great day for everyone (especially green team who were crowned champions!)

Year 3 enjoyed choosing a book at the library yesterday and listened to their class text, the Magician’s Nephew by C.S Lewis.

Year 3 have been busy looking at Ordnance Survey Maps this week. They have matched symbols and understood the purpose of maps, grid references and when they might be needed.
