Today Year 3 went to Murton Park to live a day in the Stone Age! We had such a fun time… we learned how to throw spears to hunt, how to weave, how to grind wheat into flour, how to make and decorate pottery and even became archaeologists exploring some historical artefacts!
Today we were lucky enough to have the author Andy Seed. He came to speak to us about some of his non-fiction books where he interviews a wide range of endangered animals!
On Thursday, all of Lower Key Stage 2 descended on the playground to “Make a Noise” against bullying. Not even the rain could stop us standing up against bullying!
Year 3 have been decorating some individual poppies to collaborate on a big piece of art work inspired by a Remembrance Day poppy!
Year 3 we’re lucky enough to attend a very special event at the WOW Barn as part of the Leeds Year of Culture – all focused around gender equality. We took part in some fabulous activities, all led by some of the amazing women of Leeds!
Yesterday we were lucky enough to go to St Stephen’s Church for an Easter Service with Reverend Sharon. We had a great walk over, learned about the Easter story and sang some songs together.
Yesterday at ACE we celebrated World Book Day with a theme of The Chronicles of Narnia. We had some amazing costumes and there was a wonderful buzz around school all day. Unfortunately, some children came as the Snow Queen and needed to be vanquished!
As part of our whole school pancake day celebrations to open Lent, 3C took part in some very special races… involving pancakes and frying pans! A huge well done to Turnberry, who were crowned champions of 3C, thanks to an amazing comeback run by Elsie!
Yesterday we set out on an expedition on a local walk to visit our community library. We were amazed at the amount of beautiful books we could borrow! I hope some of you manage to join the library and take advantage of such a special place in our community.
Over the next year, we will be working on a special project with the Balbir Dance Company called Bones, Beats and Bodies.
Last Thursday, we were joined by Miss Tricia to do some dance, spelling and interpretive movements all about some of the bones in our skeleton!
