Useful information

Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday. Please come into school in your PE kit. Please remember this is black shorts, white PE top and Heyhouses jumper or the new PE kit from the uniform shop in colder months. Once your child has been in Year 3 for a few weeks, we will assign them to houses and they will be given a colour. You can then purchase their coloured PE top from the school uniform shop.

Pick up and drop off

From Clarendon Road North, walk down the path and follow the building round to the right on to the Year 3/4 playground. Beech class is the first classroom you will come to then Elm class then Olive class.
The doors open at 8:45 and registration is at 8:55. Pick up is 3.30 from the Year 3/4 playground.

Reading

Please continue to read at home and record in your planners. We expect your child to be reading 3 times a week. We will hand out chapter books in the Autumn term for those children that are ready. Your child may also continue to read books from home or the public libraries and record these in their planners as their weekly reads. We want to encourage reading for pleasure.

Pencil cases

Your child may bring in a pencil case to keep their belongings. Please ensure this is not too deep as the drawers are only shallow.

Snack

You may send your child to school with a healthy snack. Please do not send crisps, chocolate or sweets. We are a nut free school and have a severe nut allergy in Year 3. We also have a tuck shop to buy toast (20p) tea cakes (30p) or crumpets (30p).

We have lots of fun in Year 3, please see our Blog to see what we have been doing in school.
