Year 3 Weekly Blog 21.12.23- The light in a child’s eyes is all it takes to make Christmas a magical time of the year!

This final week has been a whirlwind of Christmas joy. Thank you so much for joining us on Monday evening at church. The children’s telling of the Christmas story through song and scripture was simply beautiful. The children had so much fun at the Christmas party. They beamed all day long, playing pass the parcel and dancing their socks off! It was wonderful to watch them winding down after working so hard all half-term.

The children blew us away with the effort they put into their History homework. From real stone settlements, to Iron Age Hillforts and news reports… the children truly celebrated all that they had learned. Thank you so much for your support with this learning!

A huge thank you for the generous Christmas gifts and gestures. We are all very grateful that we get to be a part of your child’s learning journey and share this very special time of year with them. Today we said a bittersweet goodbye to Mrs Connolly. Thank you for all that you have done for the children and our school community. We wish you the very best of luck on your new adventures!
