Year 3
Weekly Update - Friday 11th July 2025
Summary of this week:
Year 3 have had a great time enjoying the sunshine this week. We have had a lot of fun in our new Science unit of Magnets - where the children have been using different styles of magnets to test different materials both inside and outside of the classroom. We have also enjoyed completing our letters to Robin Hood... hopefully he will reply and let us know if we can join his Merry Men!
Our learning next week:
Maths: In Maths this week, we have been learning about representing data, specifically through different styles of graphs and pictograms.
English: In English, we have been writing letters of reply to Robin Hood, based around a letter we received from one of his friends – Jack.
Foundation:
In Science, we have started our next topic on magnets. We have enjoyed using magnets to test out which materials in our classroom are magnetic!
In RE, we have been continuing to learn about fairness in our world. This week we have looked specifically at Mitzvah festivals and how people do charitable work to help others.
In Computing, we have finished off our topic on data. We used Microsoft Excel to make different graphs, choosing ones that we felt represented the data in the most suitable way.
In PSHE, we have been learning about water safety – using a story to help us make posters around different safety rules that can help us when we are swimming in the sea.
Homework
As we draw near to the end of term, there will be no homework this week or next week.
Please can we take this opportunity to congratulate your children on their engagement with the homework this academic year and your support with it.

Thank you as always for your support,
Miss Bullock, Mr Harber, Mrs Secker, Mrs McKenzie and Mrs Milner.
