Healthy Living Week- Seasonal tarts
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
As part of healthy living week, we have carried out our DT project which involved designing and making a seasonal tart, either savoury or sweet. The project began by researching which different fruits and vegetables grow during the summer season in Britain. We then carried out some taste testing of some of these fruits and vegetables, as well as other toppings. The children then designed and made their own seasonal tarts with the skills focus being on using a claw and bridge grip when chopping different fruits and vegetables. We also discussed why good hygiene is important when handling food. They can’t wait to eat them tomorrow!
Healthy Living Week - Yoga
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
This week as part of ‘Healthy Living Week’ the children took part in a yoga session with Amy from the YMCA who takes the children regularly for PE on a Wednesday. The children learnt how to control their breathing in a calm and relaxed setting.
Sculpture designs

This half term we will be making clay bird sculptures based on Road Dahl’s story, Billy and the Minpins. Today we have been researching different British birds in order to help us with our designs. There were some fantastic designs and many sketches that were better than Mrs Pape’s!
Our Christian Values- Dioramas
Peter Dalrymple (PDalrymple) on: Year 3 Class Blog
This week we have enjoyed some wonderful art afternoons based on our whole school art project on our Christian values. The children worked in groups to design a diorama based on their given Christian value. It was a very enjoyable afternoon and all the children worked brilliantly together to create their creative piece. Each diorama will be displayed around school and we are looking forward to sharing them with the rest of the school tomorrow.
We are musicians!
