This week we invite children to journey with Jesus through Holy Week. By focusing on the events of the last week of Jesus’ life on Earth children will listen and relate each Scripture to their lives. Children will be invited to meet the loving presence of Jesus as they walk the road to the Cross in prayer, and to continue walking close to Him always.
What a busy week we have had!
Thank you to everyone who attended our open afternoon. It was lovely to get to meet so many of you and to talk about how your children are getting on in Year 3.
On Thursday morning, we had our class mass with Year 6. Then, in the afternoon, we had our Lenten Reflections with Fr Frank. Thank you for joining us. It was a beautiful, reflective time, to see the church illuminated by a single candle. I hope the children have been keeping up with the challenge Fr Frank set them.
We have also been practicing for our class liturgy to share with the rest of the school on Monday.
We have been extremely busy with our learning in Year 3 this week. Here’s what we have been up to…
In English, the children have been planning to write letters in character, as Jemmy Button.
In Maths, the children have been working on fractions, moving on to tenths today.
In PE, the children have started to work on fielding skills.

The following resources are a great way of keeping you all informed of our current liturgy themes and of the weekly Gospel scripture, with some activities that the children can complete at home. We hope you find these resources useful and that they help you to support prayer and worship in your own homes.
