Year 3 investigated polygons today and saw what shapes they could make from putting different ones together.
Then they moved onto marking the vertices on isometric paper!

Boom Whacker Workshop
Hedgehog class enjoyed a Boom Whacker workshop today courtesy of CNS high school.
Miss Peek will be delivering these sessions across the school during the next academic year.
They were able to play different rhythms and chords and even accompany the song ‘Lean on me.’
French Fruit Salad in Year 3
Year 3 began this term’s French topic on food today using Languagenut to learn the names of fabulous fruits. They extended their language learning to create colourful fruit bowls which they labelled in French! Bien fait tout le monde (well done everyone)!
Year 3 Sculpture
Year 3 had fun making these bowls inspired by Kandinsky. They used paper mache and thought carefully about how their designs could be inspired by him.
We are Proud to be a ‘Good’ School
I am delighted to inform you that we have retained our ‘good’ judgement by Ofsted in our recent inspection.

I also wanted to personally thank everyone who completed Ofsted’s Parent View survey. This is such valuable feedback, and helps us to ensure our school continues to be the best that it can be for our pupils.

Year 3 Stone Age Houses
Look at our amazing Stone Age houses!
Year 3 construction
Year 3 have been designing, making and evaluating their own toothpaste boxes. They thought carefully about what went well and what they could do better next time.
Coronation Celebrations!
We have had an amazing day across the school as we celebrated the King’s coronation. Children designed coronation t-shirts, Year 3 and 4 students created coronation puppets in their Forest School sessions, and our lunchtime staff, with the help of council, put on a delicious lunchtime picnic, complete with crown biscuits. A feast fit for a King!
Year 3 Investigation
Year 3 investigated equal parts today. We found out that equal parts do not need to look the same!
Year 3 Fractions
Year 3 used multilink to help show parts and wholes in different contexts. They worked hard to write the fraction down too.
