New Year Fireworks.

This is how London marked the start of 2013. The fireworks and music are amazing!
Warning - Do not look at anything else on youtube linked to this without checking with a grown up.

Happy New Year!

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year. May 2013 be a year of happiness and health. We look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday 8th January!

What is the job of the stem?

Today we talked about the jobs of the stem and the root in green plants.

We planned and set up and experiement to find scientific evidence to prove this.

We put a stalk of celery (green plant) into water stained with red food colouring. We predicted that the celery will have turned red when we look at it after the holidays. The red colouring shows us the path the water takes.

The Last week of term

We have a very busy and festive week in Year 3. Remember that we light the third pink candle tomorrow which means we can start to get excited!


On Monday,  it is Year 3 and 4 party day.

On Tuesday we have a whole school hymn practice.

On Wednesday morning we have KS2 awards assembly.

On Thursday we have whole school Mass over at Church.

On Friday we have our last gathering together before Christmas as a school.


Not to mention those children in the choir who have three performances with Mrs Aldred this week!


Remember to keep reading and that your last homeworks for this term are due in on Tuesday. There will be no spellings set over the holiday!

Tom and Jerry

A little bit of festive fun - I used to watch this cartoon before Christmas when I was little! What have Tom and Jerry learnt by the end of the cartoon? (Remember not to click on any other links on youtube without
checking with a grown up!) 

This Sunday we will light the third Advent Candle.

It is PINK because it is GAUDETE Sunday!
