Sparrows: Year 3

Welcome to Sparrows

Sparrows are cheerful and full of energy, often seen flocking together and filling the air with their song. Just like our class, we enjoy working as a team, sharing ideas, and letting our curiosity take flight!​

We are thoughtful, determined, and always ready to encourage one another. We work hard, celebrate achievements big and small, and create a classroom where everyone feels valued. Together, we make our learning community a place where every child can flourish.

 

                

In Year 3, we think about our learning behaviour and consider our choices carefully. We learn from our mistakes and support each other. We collect house points and marbles for making the right choices, and together we have chosen our rewards:

150 marbles 300 marbles 450 marbles 600 marbles
Free choice snack Busy time Craft afternoon Biscuit decorating

 

Our Class Teacher - Miss Nijhuis

I am really looking forward to teaching Year 3 this year and to welcoming everyone into our Sparrows class. Together, we’ll build a classroom that is caring, supportive, and full of curiosity. I’m excited to explore our projects with the children, from investigating different habitats to travelling back in time to discover the Anglo-Saxons, and of course enjoying our trips along the way. One of my favourite subjects to teach is English, as I love seeing children grow in confidence as writers and storytellers.

Outside of school, I enjoy relaxing with a good book, spending time with my family, heading out for walks, and following the Formula 1.

Our Class book - The boy who grew dragons

Lampie by Annet Schaap is a magical and adventurous story about a brave girl who lives in a lighthouse with her father. After a terrible accident, Lampie is sent to work at a mysterious seaside house filled with secrets and rumours of a sea monster. As she uncovers the truth, Lampie learns about courage, kindness and standing up for what is right.
