Year 3 2019 - 2020

Welcome to Year 3!

And welcome to Key Stage 2! If you are in City of Truro Class, your Class Teacher is Mrs Walsh. If you are in Duchess of Hamilton Class, your Class Teacher's are Mrs Watson on a Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and Mr Scaife on a Thursday and Friday. Year 3 Classes are supported by Mrs Wynn-Hughes, Mrs Strowbridge and Mrs Clarke, our Teaching Assistants.

Homework
Each week children will receive Maths and English homework. It will normally be set on a Thursday and should be returned to school the following Wednesday to be marked. If your child is finding any part of it difficult, please ask their Class Teacher who will be happy to help!

Children in Year 3 should be reading at home for a short time every day. Regular practise really helps them to become confident readers. Children will be responsible for choosing their own books.

PE
Children will have PE twice a week. Your child will need a full PE kit from the beginning of the academic year. The PE kit should be kept in school on the children’s pegs and will be sent home at the end of every half-term to be washed. Year 3 children also have swimming lessons. A letter will be sent home to give details of when they start. They are usually over a period of 10-12 weeks. Your child will require an appropriate swimming costume, a swimming cap and googles if needed, and a towel.
