Year 3
We are delighted to welcome you and your children to Year 3.
It's been great to see the children back in school: they have made a fantastic start already! Classes have settled really well and the children have already demonstrated how hardworking, respectful and resilient they can be – a brilliant start to their year 3 journey.
Uniform
We kindly remind all families of the importance of children attending school in the correct school uniform each day. Wearing the full, correct uniform helps pupils feel a sense of pride and belonging as well as supports our high standards across the school. The current expectations around school uniform are displayed on our website under school uniform.
Homework
Weekly Homework Expectations
As part of year three's weekly homework, children are expected to:
- Read at least five times per week
- Practise their weekly spellings
- Complete 20 sessions on Times Tables Rock Stars (TTRS)
Thank you for your continued support at home!
Please find this week's spellings below. If your child has been given a spelling book to bring home, please practice the spellings in the book.
Trips, Treats and Letters
Over the course of the year, we will send out information regarding various trips or treats we are organising. We will also link to these events from this page so that everything is in one place!
Y3 Geography Walk - 9th and 10th December
As part of our Geography unit, Year 3 will be taking a walk around Fair Oak to explore local land use. This will take place during the week beginning 8th December, with each class heading out during school hours: Tuesday 9th – Carle, Blake & Potter; Wednesday 10th – Axel & Ross. Please ensure your child comes prepared with warm layers and suitable footwear, as we will be walking through Knowle Park, which can be muddy. A spare pair of shoes and a carrier bag would also be appreciated.
If you have not yet done so, please log in to your Arbor account to provide consent for this visit under Local Visits 2025/26. Thank you.
