Class 3 - Year 3/4

Welcome to Class 3 - Year 3 & 4

Hello! My name is Miss Wells, and I am the teacher of Class 3, which includes children in both Year 3 and Year 4. Throughout the week, we are fortunate to be supported by Mr. Green and Mrs. Bond.

In Spring term, we will embark on two exciting topics that will broaden our historical and geographical understanding.

• In Spring 1, we will be exploring the fascinating world of the Roman Empire. We will learn about why and how the Romans invaded Britain, the changes they brought and the archaeological evidence that still exists today. To deepen our understanding, we will visit the Lunt Roman Fort and discover more about what life was like in Roman Britain.
• In Spring 2, we will be learning about settlements. We will discover different types of settlement, how land is used in our local area and comparing our village to a settlement in India.

This term promises to be an exciting journey of discovery, inquiry and global awareness!

The curriculum in Class 3 will continue to develop children's skills, knowledge, and understanding across all subjects. The core elements of their learning are centered around English, maths, science, and RE. Excellent progress in these areas will provide a strong foundation for development in other areas. You can find a copy of our termly overview below. 

This year, some of our Year 3 children will also be preparing for the Sacrament of Reconciliation and the Eucharist (First Holy Communion).

I am very excited about the year ahead and look forward to collaborating with parents, carers, and our pupils to make this a truly special and memorable year at St. Mary’s.

General reminders:
