Welcome to Swallow Class!
Miss Ash is the teacher Monday to Thursday and Mrs Grigg will teach on a Thursday afternoon and Friday. We have a wonderful teaching assistant, Mrs Vachhani who will be supporting the children with their learning this year.
In year 3 we learn so much; from rainforests and mountains in geography to the Stone age and Romans in history, from scratch and animation in computing, to plants and rocks in science, and plenty more! We have awesome whole class reading books and we love having story time. We have some inspiring visitors planned to make our learning really come alive, and of course, we finish the year with our fabulous camping trip on the school field.
We are passionate about working outdoors when possible, and we love to be active with great PE lessons and of course, the daily mile.
In Swallow class, we want each child to take responsibility for their learning and to work together as a TEAM to explore our new learning. We aim to demonstrate the school values at all times, and we colour in a piece of our class heart when individually or as a team, we go above and beyond to demonstrate a value.
