Year 3 - What An Amazing Year!
What an incredible year it's been for Year 3! We've explored so many exciting new topics, from forces and plants in science to building castles in DT. In computing, we learned to send emails, and in French, we mastered greetings. One of our favorite lessons was hot-seating as characters from "The Magic Faraway Tree". We even staged two fantastic productions: "The Christmas Story" and, at Easter, "Roll Back The Stone." It's safe to say we've learned a tremendous amount and had a truly brilliant year!
