Year 3

Welcome to Year Three

This year your teacher will be Mrs Thornely supported by Mrs Crossland. Below you will find key information for Year 3, an overview of the curriculum, end of year expectations and links to websites which you may find useful. Photographs of our work and special events will also be shared through the Year 3 Class Dojo page.

Homework in Year 3 is given on a Friday and we ask that it is returned by the following Friday either via Dojo or as a photocopied version if requested. Home learning usually consists of one Maths activity linked to work completed during the week or times tables and an English activity linked to sentence/grammar work completed during the week. In addition to this, we encourage children to read daily for at least 15 minutes at home and ask that children bring reading books into school daily.

P.E in Year 3 takes place on a Tuesday afternoon and swimming lessons on a Thursday afternoon until the end of the Spring term.

If you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact us. We are available on the playground at the end of the day or you can contact the school office if you wish to arrange a phone call or make an appointment.

At St Mary and St Joseph's we have our pupils at the heart of every decision we make and as such our curriculum has been designed to meet the needs of all our children.
