Visit from an Artist

This term, the children are looking at Chinese Art. Today, we have had a visit from a Chinese Artist.

The children enjoyed learning about different styles of Chinese art and had a go at Chinese dancing.

The children have had a fantastic morning with Grace. Here are some photos.

Year 3 Author visit

Yesterday, as part of Reading Focus Week the year 3 children were visited by the local author Roy Bradshaw.

He shared his book ‘Konk the White Crocodile’ and the children then created models of the main character.

Reading Focus Week/ Author Visit 📚❤

This week, we are celebrating ‘Reading Focus Week’ at St George’s! Throughout this week, the children will participate in various reading activities to promote a love for reading.

To kickstart the week, we invited Roy Bradshaw, a local author, to lead a Key Stage One assembly. He showcased some of the books he had written and read ‘Barley’s Biscuits’ to us. Following the assembly, Roy conducted workshops for Years Two and Three. These workshops focused on his story ‘Konk the White Crocodile,’ and the children had the opportunity to create their own 2D and 3D models of the main character.

REMINDER

It is World Book Day is on Thursday, March 7th. The children can come to school dressed as a book character if they’d like, or they can wear their pyjamas. All children are welcome to bring their favourite book from home.

 

Year 3 Shadows

This week in Science we have been investigating shadows. We looked at how they changed when the light source moves closer or further away.

Year 3 – Tag Rugby

Year 3 were lucky enough to have an afternoon of tag rugby. They took part in lots of different, fun games.

It was such a lovely afternoon which was full of smiles and laughter. Well done, everyone!

Year 3 – Children’s Mental Health Awareness Week

This week, the children have been doing a range of activities to celebrate Mental Health Awareness Week.
We have been fortunate enough to have Mrs Wingrove-Adams join us for a special assembly.
Mrs Hach and Miss Slaney have also led a special workshop.

 

Recorders

In year three, the children are learning to play the recorder.

So far, we have learned to play A, B and G.

 

Land use in our local area

In Geography, we are looking at land uses.

This afternoon, the children in year three went to investigate how the land is used in St Georges. When we got back to school, they drew some sketches of what they saw.

 

 

All the children were very well behaved and sensible when crossing the road. Well done 🙂
