I hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year!
We had a great first week back and spent the week finding out all about Andy Warhol and Pop Art!
We created some of our own pop art using the same style as Andy Warhol. Can you spot some popular items you know?
We also enjoyed getting fit with Freddie Fit!
A and E us created a cottage boat called scull
First, the children must navigate a daring assault course, using the PE skills Mr. Crouch has taught them all term, to balance, travel at height and control their movement. Then, just like Indy, the children must take a daring leap of faith. Each child will choose the dismount from the apparatus that is a challenge for them! Do they have the courage they need to make it to the Pharaoh’s tomb??
This is where our intrepid archeologist hone the physical fitness and lightning reactions! Training to dodge poison arrows, jump pits of death, push endurance to the limit and remember to grab their hat when it falls off!
We are going to risk life, limb and laundry on our quest to find the Pharaoh’s relic…behold the tunnel of terror!!!! Somewhere in all of the gunk, leaves and creepy crawlies lies the relic that will help us unlock the chest!
Can I just say a huge thank you to all of our parents! Today was so much fun! The rain didn’t stop us and every single pupil went through the Tunnel of Doom. We had LOTS of squealing and screaming but all of them had a ball! Even the ones who were really scared before they went in wanted another go!
Thank you so much for sending their old clothes and allowing us to get them in such a state! We have been really frustrated that we haven’t been able to take them on a trip to the museum so it gave us the chance to end a truly fantastic topic in a way they will remember! Thanks again.
Mr. Crouch was fed up of seeing all of the children having nothing to play with, in our socially distanced play areas. So, he persuaded Mr. Bailey to dust off his wallet and TREAT THE WHOLE SCHOOL to new sets of play equipment for each class! Well done Mr. Bailey and THANK YOU MR. CROUCH!
To be like Indiana Jones, we have to be disciplined and work together. Mr Crouch did some drill training with us to see if we could all work together!
Mr. Crouch is training us to be fearless explorers! That means we have to know how to travel safely across apparatus, maintain good core and balance plus, know how to dismount to the floor safely.
Each week, Mr. Crouch focusses on a different aspect of balance, control, travelling, climbing or dismounting and at the end of the session, we use our skills in an Indiana Jones-style adventure across the hall!
E has done PE today. I was tired out after. We painted our viking helmets. We did history which was a timeline of the vikings invasions
Hi Year 3,
It has been great to hear from some of you.
It is clear that you are enjoying Joe Wicks’ PE sessions first thing in a morning and what a brilliant way to start the day!
With schools closed and with us all spending more time at home, it is more important than ever that we keep moving and stay healthy and positive. Exercise is an amazing tool to help us feel happier, more energised and more optimistic.
For those wanting to take part (and please do) you can join Joe Wicks on his YouTube channel at 9:00am each morning for a 30-minute, fun workout.

We have been pushing our bodies in PE by completing various fitness activities:
We are going to keep a record of our scores and see if we can achieve a new personal best.
Sorry if there are any aching children but at least they will sleep well!
I like to move it, move it, I like to, MOVE IT!
We pushed our bodies and learned about healthy options during Freddy Fit, it was so much fun!
