SCHOOL TRIP!

Our first Year 3 trip has been booked and you will have been sent home with letters.
On Tuesday 14th October, we will be spending the day at Ash End House Farm.  It fulfills part of our Science and Geography curriculum content.

We will spend the day with a guide from the farm and will be sure to meet some 'interesting animal characters'!  Who do you think we will see there?  I wonder if we will get to meet Wilbur and some of his friends from the barn?

A packed lunch and sensible outdoor clothes will be needed, but we will remind you nearer the time about this!

How exciting!

Literacy - Charlotte's Web

Over the next few weeks in Literacy we will be using the story of Charlotte's Web to improve our writing in many different ways.  We have already watched the film and have started to create word banks to describe the barn.

We will be using the web link below in some of our lessons.  Have a sneaky peak now!

Holy Souls House Saints

 
There are many ways in which your child can receive rewards and merits in Houl Souls School.  One of them is through the whole school House Saint system, where children are assigned a Saint group which will stay with them throughout their time at the school.

Your child will have been assigned a different House Saint from their time in Year 2.  There is a reminder of your child's House Saint group in the front of their reading diary.

As part of an ongoing project, we have asked the children to research their House Saint: How did they serve God?; What are they the Patron Saint of?; What are their Feast Days...and any other information and art work.  Any information brought in will be included in the Year3 House Saint portfolio, and will be referred to throughout the Year.

Perhaps you were assigned a House Saint when you were at school?  This is a great acitivity for you to work with your child at home, as we make our Sacramental Preparations in Year 3.

Who is your House Saint?

 St Bernadette? St Catherine? St John? St Francis?
