Elijah stops the rain!, by Mr Murray
Date: 9th May 2018 @ 3:57pm
Good afternoon,
As part of the Christian ethos of our school, our children plan and present their own assemblies. We have picked small sections of the bible suitable for each week and the children come up with small drama portayals; accompanying prayers; thoughts about the meanings of the word and they choose a hymn.
This was our first collective worship in Year 3 and it was all about how Elijah acted as a messenger for God and to talk about how God provides for us all.
Well done to the children in 3M who did this week's aseembly. It was nervewracking but they had some very sympathetic and thoughtful ideas about the reading.
Thanks
Mr Murray

Palm Sunday and Easter through dance!, by Mr Murray
Date: 5th Mar 2018 @ 10:28am
As we approach Easter, we begin to think about the events that lead up to Holy Week. The Springs dance Company came in to lead a workshop all about Palm Sunday; Holy Week and then Easter itself. We were very lucky in that we could learn the story through dance.
The children learned the story and the dance incredibly well and thoroughly enjoyed the session.
Hope you enjoy a small snapshot.

The day we wrote to the Queen, by Mr Murray
Date: 21st Feb 2018 @ 9:26am
We have been very lucky in Year 3!
Today we had a workshop with the fascinating John Malam during which we learned about the Royal Family family tree. Through this, we learned how to construct official formal letters and we hope to and these off the the palace directly. Aside from this, we learned about some of the strange presents that Princess Elizabeth and Prince Phillip received at their wedding - a turkey because people knew that England was struggling for food at the time.
The children had some fantastic ideas and knew an amazing amount about our royal heritage. I hope to show some examples of our letters and work later on today.

3M take a trip back in time whilst discovering light!, by Mr Murray
Date: 9th Nov 2017 @ 2:19pm
Hi all,
During our recent trip to MoSI in Manchester, we learned so much! The class were excellent and demonstrated impeccable behaviour and manners throughout!
We had a workshop about light where we were taught about the properties of it. We learned what light was made of and how it travels. The children were active in discussion and showed a great interest.
We also had a demonstration of different engines. Here was a nice opportunity for them to see how technology has advanced over time and our museum guides get the children asking many questions.
Finally, some free time allowed the children to explore an experiment in the lab zone. They were exploring different scientific principles and all looked to have a great time. They could tell me all sorts about what they had learned and experienced.
I would like to thank Mrs Green, Mrs Baleem, Mrs Asghar and Mrs Murray for supporting Mrs Gill and myself. The trip could not have gone so smoothly.
Thank you for all of your support.
Mr Murray
3M Go Green!!!, by Mr Murray
Date: 9th Nov 2017 @ 2:09pm
Good afternoon,
Part of our science topic required us to understand where soil comes from. Something which we all take for granted as we can find it in vast supply around.
We thought it would be a good idea to make our own soil!
We showed how you can take organic material, rock and worms and create your very own compost.
Enjoy
