“Welcome to our Year 3 class page. I’m a Year 3 teacher who enjoys going on outdoor walks and bringing that sense of curiosity and exploration into our learning. Our classroom is an inclusive, welcoming space where every child is encouraged to shine. I’m really looking forward to seeing Year 3 grow in confidence, knowledge, and joy throughout the year.”
Year 3 marks an exciting step as children begin Key Stage 2, bringing new challenges, higher expectations and opportunities to grow as confident learners. Pupils build on the strong foundations from Key Stage 1, developing greater independence, resilience and a deeper love of learning as they tackle more demanding work across the curriculum. Our Catholic faith continues to guide daily life in Year 3, with opportunities for prayer, reflection and living out Gospel values. Children are encouraged to persevere, believe in themselves and embrace challenge, helping them to grow academically, socially and spiritually as they begin this important new stage of their learning journey.
