At BWJPS, reading for pleasure is extremely important. To encourage this, we have a reading for pleasure slot every day where we encourage children to read a variety of books. If you wish to help us provide these by generously donating a book to our Y3 classroom, you will find our Amazon Wishlist here.

Today, Mr Wilde delivered an assembly to all children from Reception to year 6 to inform them of an exciting event we have coming up. Next month, we will be visited by paralympic gold medallist, Megan Giglia, who will be talking to our pupils and delivering a sports workshop with each class. All she asks for in return is that all children try to raise some sponsorship money (minimum of £2 each). Out of this, a small percentage will go to her charity and the rest will go to upgrading our sports equipment in school: win win! Look out for your child’s sponsorship form.
Yesterday, years 5 and 6 turned into teachers to carry out a whole school project for Holocaust Memorial Day. Inspired by the British Values of tolerance and respect, we discussed the importance of this day and how we can learn from the past. From this, we came up with hopes and dreams that we wish will one day come true for the whole world. Once years 5 and 6 completed their own, they took this learning and delivered it to every class; even staying to help each child complete their own. Mrs Kobak and Miss Pereira were very proud of each member and how they really took charge with this project but, more importantly, each member of the class enjoyed helping their younger peers. We cannot wait to see the finished product.
On Monday 17th and Tuesday 18th January, we celebrated Tu B’Shevat by carrying out a variety of arts and crafts. We also ate lots of different types of fruit, planted sunflower seeds and learnt lots of interesting facts about the holiday. Chag sameach everyone!
In maths we have been learning about equivalent fractions, to make it easier children created their very own equivalent fraction rainbows.
Well done year 3 😊
The children wrote some incredible news articles about gingerbread men that escaped our school kitchen!
Mrs Simon made incredible treats for the class only to find them missing the very next day. The children spent a lot of their free time looking for evidence! We were really impressed with their articles-so much so, that we will be sharing them with other classes! Let’s hope we can find the gingerbread men soon!
The children had a great time in science learning about all the different bones in the human body and even making their very own skeleton!
A great end to a fabulous term!
The children have really enjoyed celebrating Chanukah this week and as you can see, their outfits were fantastic!
The children worked really hard on their maths homework. They demonstrated beautifully how to exchange when adding or subtracting.
Great job everyone 😊
The children got in the role of Stone Age characters. They went in their ‘cave’ and created their very own Stone Age animals. In the distance they could hear the sound of a crackling fire-just like in Stone Age times! I’m really impressed with their finished pieces 😊
Well done year 3!
Well done to Joseph Ford-Lester and Mia Kohanzad for their powerful persuasive adverts. They both did an exceptional job 😊
The children have really impressed us with their persuasive radio adverts. We recorded the children’s adverts; each radio advert included alliteration, snappy slogans, high quality words and persuasive phrases. We were really impressed with them! Well done year 3 😊
Last half term, our head and deputy heads set up a new writing competition for Years 3 to 5. The theme for our first writing competition was creative writing and children were given a visual prompt to work with. Channa (Y3), Calum (Y4) and Jessica (Y5) were the first lucky winners and each received 15 Dojo points! Years 3 to 5 look forward to next half term’s writing theme.
The children have been working really hard on their Skara Brae leaflets-I’m so impressed with their incredible researching skills!
Well done year 3! 😊
Thankyou to everyone that has contributed to our class library-we’ve got so many great new books!
Well done to Neveiya Davey for being our first ‘Writer of the Month’. Neveiya wrote a superb set of instructions on how to make medicine for Grandma. A superb job Neveiya-well done 😊
Thank you to everyone who sent a flag to capture all your feelings about school. They are absolutely brilliant!!
The flags have now been put together (as you can see below) and we have also made them the banner for our Facebook page.
When we get back to school, we will print them out and display them around school. Thank you again, we LOVED seeing them!
