After school TAG rugby
In addition to our many after school clubs on offer this term we are pleased to announce a further club arranged for children in Year 3 and 4.
The TAG rugby club, open to boys and girls, will start on Tuesday 17 May (there is no taster session) from 3.15pm to 4.15pm and is run by a rugby coach. There is no charge for the club. The club lasts for 5 weeks and the children will then have the opportunity to take part in a festival at a local rugby club against other schools.
If you would like to take part in the club please complete the permission slip on the recent letter or ask for a letter at the office.
Maths in the playound
In a recent maths lesson, the children were tasked with calculating the cost of some new playground equipment. They had to add together the different pieces of equipment to see what they could buy if they had £300.
What are the most important features of a family car?
In a topic lesson this half-term the class had to sort nine features of a family car by deciding which were the most important to which were the least important. We then repeated the activity, but this time we sorted the same features for a rally car. This led to a really interesting debate about the importance of the various features!
Tackling cyber-bullying
In literacy this half-term, the class have been finding out about cyber-bullying. They then wrote a report about what cyber-bullying is and how you can limit the chances of being cyber-bullied.
PE with Leeds Met Sports Coaching Students
Year 3 are just one of a number of classes who are currently working with Sports Coaching students from Leeds Met as part of their school placement. The sessions have been very active and enjoyable with the children learning and practising lots of multiskills.
NSPCC Buddy’s Big Workout
In PE this morning we took on Buddy’s Big Workout!
To fit in with our PE topic, we had decided to try and complete 100 throws and catches. It wasn’t easy. There were a few missed catches. There were a few erratic throws.
But we did manage to make the 100 target! The last throw was a bit tense, but Pamela’s throw was straight and Loraine’s catch was perfect!
It’s now time to get the sponsorship envelopes back in to school. All envelopes need to be in before Thursday 21 October.
Thank you.
