Birstwith CE Primary School

Welcome to the Class 3 page.  It is a pleasure to be a part of the Birstwith team and have the privilege to guide the children through their last couple of years at primary school, supported by Mrs Paxton and Mrs Holland.  Together we prepare the children for their next step in their educational journey and hopefully give them a lifelong love of learning!

Please remember PE kit needs to be in school on a Monday and Thursday.  Spelling and multiplication tests are on a Friday - results will be recorded in the children's reading record so make sure these are in school on a Friday.  Homework is handed out on a Friday and must be returned completed on a Wednesday.  Make sure long hair is tied up and you definitely need a coat for the Yorkshire weather!

We will put updates and photos on these pages regularly, so do check often.

In English writing we are developing our writing to persuade.  Today we used the  'conscience alley' technique to persuade 'Goldilocks' to do the right thing!

In DT we are following in the footsteps of Isambard Kingdom Brunel and designing and creating models for bridges.  This week we built 'truss' bridge models out of spagetti.

We were lucky enough to take part in a Christingle workshop at Ripon Cathedral, followed by a beautiful candle-lit service.  A vbery magical afternoon was had by all!
