Year 3 Update - Friday 19th June 2026
What an action-packed week we have had in Year 3! The children have worked incredibly hard across all subjects while practicing diligently for our upcoming performance. You will be pleased to know that all the children have their assembly lines in their school bags so they can practice at home!
🎭 Year 3 Assembly Reminder
We look forward to seeing you all in the school hall for our class assembly on Wednesday 1st July at 9:30am.
📚 This Week’s Learning:
📐 Maths
We completed our Statistics unit by interpreting data from pictograms, bar charts, and tables. Next week, we will continue with Geometry to explore the properties of 2D and 3D shapes. The children will learn to identify and draw horizontal, vertical, parallel, and perpendicular lines.
✍️ English
In English, we continued reading The Fossil Hunter to learn about the life of Mary Anning. We have explored the characters in depth to understand their feelings. We will go on to practice using time conjunctions and expanded noun phrases to prepare for writing a diary entry.
🔬 Science & 🏛️ History
During Science, we will be continuing to investigate rocks and soils by examining and describing their different properties. In History, we will be mapping out the chronological timeline of Queen Boudicca's rebellion leading up to her final defeat by the Romans.
🏏 PE & 🏫 SRE
In PE, the children played games of diamond cricket to practice their batting and catching skills. We also held our first SRE lesson to discuss the similarities and differences between male and female bodies. Next week, we will focus on personal space, touch followed by family differences.
Coding (using Scratch) at BWJS
Year 5 pupils have been developing their computing skills through the use of Scratch, designing and creating their own interactive games as part of the BWJS computing curriculum. Using coding blocks, the children have programmed sprites, created scoring systems and controlled movement using the keyboard, building both their confidence and understanding of how digital systems work.
Pupils have been working towards clear success criteria, including creating multiple moving sprites, adding backgrounds and ensuring their games function effectively. Many have also challenged themselves further by adapting speed, adding extra features and refining their designs. It has been fantastic to see their creativity, resilience and problem-solving skills in action.
This work has been made possible through the use of our Chromebooks, which were generously funded by FOBS. Their continued support, alongside that of our parent community, enables us to provide rich and engaging learning opportunities and resources for all pupils.
The children thoroughly enjoyed the sessions and produced some impressive outcomes – perhaps we have some future coders in the making at BWJS!
World Cup Theme Orienteering
Some of the Year 4 pupils have thoroughly enjoyed taking part in a World Cup-themed orienteering challenge around the school grounds today. The activity provided a fantastic opportunity to apply their map-reading skills in a practical and engaging way, bringing their learning to life beyond the classroom.
Working in teams, the children navigated their way around a series of checkpoints, using maps carefully to guide them. There was a real sense of excitement and purpose as pupils moved around the course, demonstrating resilience, cooperation and problem-solving along the way.
It has been particularly pleasing to see how much progress the children have made in their understanding of maps and direction. Skills that have been taught in class have clearly paid off, with pupils showing growing confidence and accuracy as they completed the challenge.
The World Cup theme added an extra layer of enthusiasm, with pupils fully embracing the competitive and collaborative spirit of the event. It was wonderful to see such high levels of engagement, teamwork and enjoyment throughout.
A brilliant experience for Year 4 and a great example of active, outdoor learning at its best.
