What a fun-filled day we've had today! It started with a zoom Spanish lesson with Seniora Buckley. We played Simon Dice (Simon Says) and learned a Halloween song in Spanish. We also learned flamenco dance. We found out lots of interesting facts about Spain and created a fact file. Finally, we pretended we were on holiday in Spain and wrote postcards from Spain.
On Friday we learned about magnetic force and investigated magnetic and non-magnetic materials.

Year 3 children have had lots of fun learning about phases of the Moon. We conducted an experiment to see how the light affects the shape of the Moon we see as it travels around the Earth. We used a torch to represent the Sun, a small ball to represent the Moon and we had one person in the middle to represent the Earth.

What a fantastic start we have had to the new school year. We've had a mysterious balloon arrive in the bushes in Year 3 and a very excited class to be back with their friends learning new and exciting topic. We're looking forward to finding out about volcanoes, travelling around the world, reading Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and investigating forces in action. Check out our medium term planning for our updates.

To all those Rock Legends out there! Back in May I posted a link about becoming a Times Table Rock Stars Guinness World Records® Title Holder! I'm not sure if anyone entered from our school but the results are now in and the title was won by a 10 year old boy from Long Eaton. Take a look at his winning video by clicking on the link below. His speed is incredible! Well done to anyone who did enter - please let me know if you did! Mrs Blomeley

Dylan and Elliot have done lots of walking whilst they have been off school and have completed the Tour of Tameside 7 mile challenge. On their walks they have been Geocaching where they have searched for hidden 'caches' using GPS coordinates. One of the caches they found was in an old WW2 bunker! How cool is that! What a fantastic achievement boys, well done!
