Year 3
Year 3 Class Page - Autumn Term 1, 2026
Welcome back to school! Our main topic for Geography and Literacy this half-term is Scotland. In Science we will be studying forces and magnetism and in RE we will be exploring themes in The Bible.
Our Christian Value is PEACE and our scripture for this half term is:
‘A peaceful heart leads to a healthy body.’
Proverbs 14:30
In Literacy we are reading Scottish folk tales including 'Selkie Girl'. In Maths we will be focusing on number and place value. Please support your child with any additional learning at home.
Children will soon have access to ‘Reading Eggs’ and ‘Mathletics’ login information. These logins will be stuck in children's reading record books.
Homework is uploaded on Friday (using Google Classrooms) and should be submitted by Wednesday. Login details will also be stuck into their reading records. Book bags will sent home every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Please support your child with their reading by listening to them read (and/or encouraging them to read to a sibling) and filling in their reading records with a comment about the book they are reading. Our PE days are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday and the PE kit (black bottoms and a plain white t-shirt) should be brought to school in a bag ready to change into.
Dates to note:
Tuesday 15th September - World Afro day all day.
Wednesday 16th September - Sports Inspired trip
Wednesday 16th September - Parent / Carer Meeting at 3:30 in Year 3.
Tuesday 29th September - Year 3 reading café in the school hall at 9:10am.
