Hello and welcome to Class 3!
Our lovely class teacher is Miss Wathall and our fantastic teaching assistant is Mrs Kirk.
In Class 3, we have the most wonderful, well-behaved children
from Years 5 and 6.
2021-2022
PE - PE will be on a Wednesday so please ensure your child has their PE kit on this day.
Reading - Your child will be expected to read to an adult at home at least three times per week which will need to be recorded with a comment in their reading record. Please make sure your child brings their reading record to school every day.
Spellings – Children will also receive a new set of spellings every Wednesday which will then be tested the following Wednesday. It would benefit your child greatly to practise these at home!
Please see homework projects below.
