Year 3

Welcome to Year 3!

Week beginning: Monday 11th November 

Welcome back! I hope you have had a wonderful half term break! I was so impressed with how hard Year 3 worked last half term and I am very much looking forward to continuing our theme of a Knight's Tale. There are lots of fun activities coming up for Year 3!

REMINDER

Please ensure your child has their PE kit in school every day as they should not be taking part in PE in their school uniform or with incorrect foot wear. 

Please also ensure that your child has a bottle of water with them as well to keep hydrated throughout the school day.
