Sports Day - 6th July 2021
We beat the rain! We all enjoyed the sports day activities this morning.
Well done Year 3 for an excellent Sports Day. I'd like to specifically congratulate our certificate winners!
They stood out today for excellent determination, they showed great passion in everything they did and worked amazingly well as part of a team.
Careers Week
We loved having Luke in as part of Careers Week. Luke told us what a job in the police entails, and even let us take a seat in the parked police car!
What's Under Your Feet
Today, we took part in the "What’s Under Your Feet?" campaign.
The campaign is all about finding out what soil invertebrates are living beneath our feet. Certain bird species like the Starling are in decline and scientists are not entirely sure why. By completing the dig we are finding out what food is available for the birds to eat.
We had to:
1. Dig a patch of turf in our school field
2. Sort, identify and record the invertebrates we found in the soil
3. Carefully put the invertebrates back, before replacing the turf
4. Update our results to the Pod using the data collection tool

Mental Health Awareness Week - 10th to 16th may 2021
This week was all about connecting with nature. We read a book called Heart and the Bottle by Oliver Jeffers and reflected on the importance of not "bottling up" our feelings. Year 3 thought about the different things that they could do outside to help their wellbeing.
We connected with nature by:
Hugging a tree
Laying down on the grass
Blowing a dandelion
Making a daisy chain
Listening to birds sing
Finding a bright coloured flower
We also coloured in the artwork donated to Mental Health Awareness Week by Paul Cummins whilst listening to calming music. This was a tulip.
Virtual Mass at St. Marie’s Cathedral- 13th May
Enjoying Pentecost Mass yesterday morning. It was lovely to see other children and celebrate together!

Switch Off Fortnight - 16th to 27th November 2020
To learn about the importance of electricity, we turned off the whiteboard and lights, left the classroom and headed outside! We hunted around the play ground to find facts and answer questions.
We loved being outside and getting some fresh air - as well as saving electricity!
Our super sewing for Saint Teresa of Avila.

Roald Dahl Day - Friday 11th September
To start our day, we did a little showcase of our costumes in class. What a wonderful effort! We created our own Mr Twit beards, using collage. We wrote some wonderful writing about the disgusting things you can find in Mr Twit's beard. To finish our day, we enjoyed taking more photos, reading The Twit's and eating Mrs' Twit's eyeballs (don't worry - they were jellies)!
