Mrs Garthwaite and Mrs Shea would like to welcome you to Year Three.
We've made it through to the Easter holidays! We hope that you manage to enjoy these two weeks with your families safe at home. We are launching our home learning and communication with families after the Easter holidays. This will be through ClassDojo. It can be accessed on a computer, IOS and android devices. Please read the letter in the Letters to Parents and send your email address to school.

School closure
As the school is closing on Friday, we have created paper based learning packs which are available from the school office if your child has not already received it. In addition to this, there are many online resources/ideas which can be used to help support your child's learning during their absence from school. Below are a number of websites, suggested games etc listed in word documents for you to access. We also encourage the children to log onto TT Rockstars to practise their times tables (if your child has forgotten their log in, please email your child's teacher or contact the office).
We appreciate how difficult this situation is and will continue to keep posting updates to support and assist you and your child.
