We’ve had a lovely day last week with Tameside SSP doing our termly Park Run. We are incredibly proud of every single child who took part. For once, we had the sun, which is always a bonus.

Well done everyone.

I’m Art Year 3 have continued to study the work of Henri Matisse, this week creating our own stencil pieces. We drew shapes with scissors to create shapes and stuck them to our piece, then used oil pastels add colour to our piece, before removing the shapes and outlining shapes left behind.

On Friday, we had a lovely Celebration of the Word from the Gospel of Luke 16 in our school chapel. Year 3 led the liturgy with reverence and the class reflected on how the words of the Gospel relate to our own lives today.

Last week in R.E, we revisited the story of creation, reflecting on the beauty and meaning behind God’s work. Using the Bible passage from Genesis 1:1–31, we explored how the world was formed and the significance of each part of creation. We then went outside to observe the natural world around us, making connections between what we saw and why this scripture still holds importance in our lives today. Excellent work Year 3, well done.
