Year 3 PE and Library days
Hello!
Year 3 will have their PE days on Tuesdays and Fridays this year. Please can your child come to school wearing their PE kit on this day too! If you’re not sure on the PE kit, please let me know and I can give you the school’s uniform policy.
Our library slot is on a Monday. Your child will need to bring their library book or books in on a Monday if they are ready to swap it or are at the end of their 2 week allowance.
Any questions, please ask!
Thank you!
Miss Birch
Looking forward to this year!
Hello Year 3!
As you know, I’m Miss Birch and I’m going to be your child’s teacher for the next year! I’m really looking forward to working with all of the children and grown-ups. I hope you’ve all had a wonderful summer holiday and are raring to come back. We’re going to be a fabulous team – bring it on!
Me and my family!
What a year!
It’s the final day of the year before the summer holidays begin! We just wanted to write a final message to say a huge well done to all the children for such a fantastic year. It really has flown by and they have progressed and learnt so much along the way.
Also, thank you to all the parents and grown ups who have worked with us to support their children and thank you for any gifts you have given too!
Have a great holidays, from Miss Birch, Mrs Simpson and Miss Akhtar.
Here are some great memories from Year 3…
Goodbye Year 4!
Thank you so much for a fantastic year! It has been a real joy to teach this class and I am so proud of all of them for what they’ve achieved this year. Here are some highlights of our year…
Your children have been incredible and I’m really looking forward to seeing them continue to flourish as they move up through the school.
Enjoy Year 5!
Design & technology: food
This week, Year 2 have been using their design and technology food preparation skills to make our latest recipe, fruit bars.
Some of the skills we used to make our product included:
- snipping
- mixing
- measuring
- mashing
- using the oven and hob safely
After the cooking, we carried out the evaluation of the product and we enjoyed the tasting our product together.
Help at home: Ask your child/children what food preparation skills they have used in this learning and can they demonstrate these using the recipe they have brought home.
Goodbye Reception!
I can’t believe your Reception year has come to an end. Since returning in March, we’ve shared many amazing memories together. You’ve all had a tremendous first year at school and I’m extremely proud of each and every one of you. I love forward to seeing you all in your new Year 1 classroom in September. Have a wonderful summer!
Some highlights since March…
Moortown Oscars 2025
Thank you so much for a fantastic year. We wrapped it up in style with a great party last night. Awards were given, dances were performed and songs were screamed!
We wish every child the very best for their future and we know they’ll go on to do great things.
Moortown will miss them dearly.

Design Technology: Eggy Carts
Yesterday, the children finished off their Eggy’s carts. They added safety features like seat belts, crumple zones and a roll cage. Take a look at their fabulous work!
To complete our DT project, the children then had to test their carts against the design brief. We completed two tests:
- if it was moveable (roll test);
- if it would protect Eggy when the vehicle crashed (crash test);
For the crash test, the children pushed their cars down a ramp into a wall to see if Eggy would still be in intact – some Eggys did not make it. Take a look at our SMASHING experiment!
Help at home: What was your child’s favourite part of the making process? What would they improve next time? What was one thing they found difficult?
DT: Eggy crash tests
The time has come to see whether our cracking karts will protect Eggy or see him scrambled!
Our teamwork has been eggcellent but now our brains are fried. Good luck, Eggy. We hope our engineering has been no yolk.
Did every Eggy survive?
