Today we enjoyed a visit from Fisher's Farm and their very friendly animals! We were all looking forward to seeing the animals and finding out more about them. We looked around the different pens and asked the visitors questions such as, 'What food do they eat?' 'How old are they?' and 'How do you care for them?' We even stroked and brushed some of the animals!

Today, we had a very special visit from vicars from the local church Matt and Matthew. They came in and discussed how the church is a community for members of the congregation and shared that they pray and sing together when they attend. They also talked to us about the importance of praying and reading the bible and how this guides Christians lives. Lastly, they shared with us the clothes they wear and how they conduct communion by members of the congregation sharing wine (blackcurrant juice) and bread.

What an amazing day at Blackpool Zoo! The pupils all had a fantastic time, their behaviour was a credit to the school and their families, and they walked there and back again without a moan. We saw many of the wonderful animals, including: ring-tailed lemurs, monkeys, giraffes and a close-up with the red panda, and we also had talks from the zoo's education team about sea lions, elephants and penguins. Khari the lion has been returned to Blackpool zoo into his new enclosure, and has been out exploring for the first time this week. It was great to see him back again!

Year 3 Desktop Publishing Invitations
Date: 26th Apr 2023 @ 11:52am
This week in Computing we used our Desktop publishing skills on Google Slides to create Royal Coronation Invitations. We were given specific information then we had to include but we needed to edit the content when we realised there had been a (deliberate) mistake! We changed the font style and colour, page orientation, included pictures and tried to make it look appealing to our intended guests. Here are a few examples of our work so far...

This afternoon, Reception received a very exciting letter from the Giant in the story Jack and the Beanstalk. Also enclosed, were a bag of beans to plant. The letter was asking the children if they would plant some beans to grow a beanstalk.
Of course, the children were delighted to do this and couldn't wait to get planting outside with Mrs McAllister.
"I'm going to grow mine so I can climb up it!" Kian.
"First we need soil in a pot" Dolly- Anne.
"We need to make a hole with our finger and put the bean in it then cover it over with the soil so the birds don't take it!" Dillan.
"Don't forget to water it and put it in the sun to grow" Albie.

Reception have been reading the story Jack and the Beanstalk. After listening to the story, they were able to retell it using puppets, small world figures and Lego at the storytelling table. Here, they listened to each other, took turns to speak and used words and phrases spoken in the story. They also painted a beanstalk as a challenge and made their own using various craft resources from the creative area.
"Fiee! Fi! Fo! Fum!" Kit.
"Jack's mum was angry because he sold the cow for magic beans" Lennox.
"The beanstalk grew very tall...it reached the clouds...Jack climbed all the way up to the Giant's castle" Ibrahim.
"The Giant chased Jack and he hid in the cupboard" Esmee.
"The Giant chased Jack and Jack ran down the beanstalk very quickly and mum chopped it down!" William.

Once again, Gardening Club has begun and children have been busy planting lots of seeds.
Spring has arrived and the school grounds are starting to come alive with the Spring flowers Gardening Club planted in Autumn, (daffodils, crocus and hyacynth) and the leaves and blossom are now growing on the trees.
As it is the growing season, Gardening Club have begun to grow brocolli, tomatoes, spinach and various herbs. Hopefully, as the seeds germinate, we should have a bumper crop to enjoy in a few months time- watch this space!
"The seeds need lots of water to help them grow" Connor.
"Hopefully, it should be sunny which will make the tomatoes grow big" Sharleigh.
Year 3- George Frederick Handel
Date: 3rd Apr 2023 @ 8:26am
In music, we explored the composer George Frederick Handel. We started by using black pen to mind map what we found out about him. We then listened to the piece Zadok the Priest. We added information about this in different colours and used our music mat to help. We then linked this to the upcoming coronation of King Charles and created our own coronation day chant.
