Today year 3 had been absolutely amazing during their PE lesson, the coaches gave many of them so many praises! They played so well in the teamwork games by communicating and showing off active skills. Well done year 3, this has been the best PE lesson ever today!

For this week only, Year 3 PE will be on Thursday 30th November, instead of Wednesday.
Next week will be Wednesday as usual.
There will be no PE in the final week of the Christmas term, due to other events in school – children will take part in active games that week instead – no need to wear PE kit.
Thanks

Today we were so lucky to be joined virtually by Meltem Avcil, a former Doncaster resident and the main subject for the book we have read ‘Meltem’s Journey – A Refugee Diary.’
We have started to think about why people come to Doncaster nowadays and Meltem joined us to share her personal and emotional story of how, as a young child, she fled her homeland to find herself in Doncaster of all places.
Following a time a detention centre, she eventually moved to Cambridge where she now lives.
Her story is one of determination and resilience and she was a real inspiration for the children this afternoon – they couldn’t wait to ask her questions.
For our final piece of writing, the children would really like to learn the stories behind our own school community and what attracts people to Doncaster or what makes people stay – so we would appreciate it if you could support your child, when they come home wanting to ask you questions about where you are from.

Today we had the privilege of taking part in a live video call with Meltem, a refugee from Turkey. We found out all about her journey from Turkey to Doncaster and her life as a refugee. We found out what brought her to Doncaster and how resilience and perseverance in the face of adversity has led to personal growth and success.

Today, class 3SG have been inside the hall today to work on their team building skills and communication. They were absolutely fantastic starting off with a game involving sense of direction and understanding North, East, South and West. They then split into groups and used cones to play a colour memory game. They worked so well together in groups and had so much fun!

We are scientists!
Today, in 3GS, we have been investigating shadows and how moving closer to or away from a light source changes the length of a shadow. Have you ever noticed how your shadow looks at different times of the day?
We have also been investigating how mirrors reflect light and explored which materials are reflective.

We wanted to say a MASSIVE thank you from Key Stage 1 to everyone who helped raise money towards the buddy benches. We were blown away by the kind donations, which will help us buy two handcrafted buddy benches for the playgrounds as part of our current expedition.
Well done to everyone who donated money and completed their sponsored walk today. It really was a big crew effort!
We look forward to sharing our designs and the finished product shortly.
