2022-24 Year 3 Blog

 This week in PSHE, Year 3 looked at online bullying and some of the positives and negatives of going online. The children created a table of ideas and took turns in explaining them to the class.

 This term, year 3 are studying ‘volcanoes’. They began looking at their new vocabulary mat.  From there, they looked at who Vulcan was; The God of Fire. Finally, they drew a volcano and annotated it with vocabulary they already know. Some great discussions and misconceptions already. Looking forward to this topic. 

  Year 3 were very very lucky, because they had a visit from Mr David France who is a real-life pharmacist. He was kind enough to talk to us all about medicine and the different types that we as children and adults might use and see. We also asked lots of questions and Mr France was very impressed with all of the knowledge Year 3 already had. It was very interesting to find out about the different things you can do at pharmacy and how many of our health problems can be solved there, instead of going to the doctors.

 Today marks the start of anti bullying week and Year 3 took part in a BBC live lesson all about how we can do our bit to stop bullying. We even took part in different activities that gave us lots of different tools to use if we needed to report any bullying we may see or hear. 

 Take a look at our PCSO visit from today, where the children found out the importance of staying safe and how they can keep others in their community safe too. 

  Today, we looked at how certain things in our home can be dangerous without correct supervision. We were super surprised at how many things could potentially be dangerous!

 This week, we looked at safety and what this means in our day to day lives. We discussed how we can keep safe, what we can use to keep safe and how we can keep others safe.
