Reading for pleasure: 

Year 3 are currently reading - 

The night we got stuck in a story - By Ben Miller

This story follows two children who stumble across a a threat to their favourite tree. During the night, something leads the children to a hollow in the tree when they suddenly find themselves in storybook land. 

Our Class Saint - 

This year, Year 3 have chosen their own class saint. We had a class discussion and we have chosen St Andrew Dung-Lac. Year 3 chose him to be our class saint as his motto links to our school's mission statement and he showed the importance of spreading God's love. He was a great role model for showing kindness to those in need. 

His motto: May we be your children in name and in truth through spreading your love among our brothers and sisters. 

Our Vehicle this term is...

This term, we will learn about the craftsman Wedgwood in our Art lessons and the impact he had on trade for the UK. As well as this, we will be learning about the impacts of Trade for the UK and its importance for consumers.
