To celebrate the 80th anniversary of VE day 3SG have participated in lots of lovely activities to learn about and remember the brave men and women who sacrificed their lives fighting during World War 2. We dressed in the patriotic colours of red, white and blue, sat beautifully for a remembrance assembly where we heard moving memoirs from children during the Blitz, before observing a minute silence. Lunch was particularly lovely, we all sat outside on the grass eating the traditional British classic of fish and chips and had a little boogie! In the afternoon, the children designed their own Spitfire plane and we had a little competition in the hall. What a wonderful day!

WOW what a wonderful start to our new expedition. We had a wonderful time exploring the elements and learning all about how sound travels. The children got the chance to partake in lots of experiments and even made their own instruments!

Last week, 3SG celebrated World Book Day in style. Everyone looked AMAZING in their costumes and a HUGE thank you to FONCA for their wonderful Mad Hatter’s tea party. The children loved playing games, eating cake and drinking juice just like Alice and her friends!

We’ve been busy this week learning all about similes and using them to write ‘What am I’ style texts about the different parts of the body. This morning we did a little face-to-face activity, where the children went around reading their sentences out to each other trying to figure out whether the sentence was a simile or not! Big well done to all of 3SG for getting well and truly stuck into this writing cycle.

In music this half term we are learning the rhythm of Salsa music! We are practising using dance moves to understand the rhythm and body percussion to get the beat. Well done to 3SG for getting stuck in and working on their moves!!

We have had a wonderful first day back after the Christmas holidays. Today we’ve kicked off our new expedition with some Science and exploring the human body!
