Welcome to Year 3!

One Family, Aiming High, Learning Together with God

Welcome back to school.

Welcome to a brand-new school year! I am so excited to be your child’s teacher and to begin our learning journey together. 

We aim to create a happy, safe, and inspiring classroom where every child feels valued and encouraged to try their best. With your support, I know this will be a wonderful year of learning and fun.

I look forward to working with you and getting to know your children as we make Year 3 a memorable part of their school journey.

This week in year 3 w/e 13th October 2026

In Maths this week, we have been learning addition and subtraction using the column method, and the children have been working hard on their layout and presentation. In English, they have been working hard on writing their own alternative endings to our core text, Wolves, using dialogue, expanded noun phrases and a range of conjunctions to extend their sentences. In science this week we were learning about how fossils are formed as part of our topic on rocks, and we all enjoyed making our own fossils out of salt dough.  In art, the children were using their knowledge of drawing with charcoal to create 3D images of the rabbit from our book, Wolves.

Please contact me at sarahr@spmillend.herts.sch.uk if you have any queries or concerns and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Reading books will be sent home on Friday and must be returned on Wednesday.  

Reading records need to be filled in at least three times a week and signed by an adult at home and brought into school on Wednesdays for us to check. 

Maths homework is on Doodle Learning.  The children have their own login and this can be found inside their orange reading record books. The children will also receive spellings to practise each week.

Homework is set on a Friday and should be completed by the following Wednesday.  Please let me know if you have any issues with completing the homework.

Please check the class page for updates about what we have been learning!
