“Learning, loving and encouraging through Christ.”
Welcome to Term 5.
We hope you all had a refreshing Easter break and are looking forward to lots more exciting learning as we finish off the Anglo Saxons and Vikings and prepare to meet the Romans! Please find the Topic Web link enclosed.
A polite reminder that PE day is Thursday and we will be doing both indoor and outdoor PE this term. Please could all children have a PE kit in school, which is named.
Thank you

Celtic Crosses were used as sign to Christians of a place were they could worship. They were used because they couldn’t build churches quickly enough. Having studied different Celtic Crosses we identified and sketched the parts we liked best. We then used these to influence our own art work. Now we are going to use them to design our own Celtic Cross and then build it out of clay.
King Ethelbert recruited the help of year 3 in solving his Anglo – Saxon framers problem. He needs all fields to have a perimeter of 28M. The children used their maths knowledge to help solve his problem.
This term we have had lots of opportunities to try new sports and learn new skills in PE, from boxing to golf to …
vaulting.
Picasso came to Year 3, in the form of a Viking p
icture, created in the artists cubist style.
Invasion is on the way.
This term has began with our stunning start, which saw the Anglo-Saxons of Chestnut class defend their lands from the murderous, marauding Vikings of Rowan, with their own home made swords and shields. This will lead us into the start of our topic, as well as, providing some background knowledge and feelings to help with our English writing (Non- Fiction Writing in the form of a News Paper report.)
Welcome back and a Happy New Year to all our parents and families in Year 3.
Please find attached our curriculum map for term 3.

Our topic this term was scavengers and settlers which we embellished by going to the amazing Brockhill park and creating our own dens and having lots of fun in the mud like our ancestors.
We even made our own natural art!
