Welcome to Year 3

The children have had a fantastic start to Year 3 and have settled really well into their new routines and expectations. They have already learnt lots of exciting new things and have been working hard across all areas of the curriculum.

It has also been lovely to see so many house points being earned for their effort, behaviour and positive attitudes. I am really pleased overall with how hard the children have worked and how well they are adapting to life in Year 3.

The children have now chosen their reading books, which should be coming home with them. Please encourage them to enjoy some regular reading at home and remember to bring their reading books and reading records back into school.

I am sure they are all feeling very tired after such a busy week, so they definitely deserve a well-earned rest this weekend!

I hope you all have a lovely and relaxing weekend.

A few important reminders:

• Please ensure that children bring a named water bottle and their reading record to school every day.

• All school uniform and belongings should be clearly labelled with your child’s name.

• The Autumn 1 homework grid has now been uploaded to the class webpage.

• Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday

• Meet the teacher on Wednesday 16th September

At the end of the school day, please come to the classroom door and tell me your child’s name so that I can safely hand them over to you. I am still learning everyone’s names and matching the children with their parents and carers, so your support and patience would be greatly appreciated.

If somebody else will be collecting your child, please let me know in advance. Even if you had a regular collection arrangement in place last year, I will need to be updated and made aware of it for this new school year.

We look forward to welcoming you all and having a wonderful year together!

If you have any questions please don't hesitate to ask us.

Mrs Sraan, Mrs Hessian, Mrs O'Toole and Mrs Andrews.

Spelling test will be Friday 18th September
