International Week



3M had yet another enjoyable week as it was International week in our school.
3M got busy finding where the different continents were around the world and enjoyed learning about countries including Ireland, Australia and Spain. They learned about the Aboriginals in Australia and enjoyed very much creating Aboriginal patterns with Miss Gould. They had lots of fun learning about Spanish climate, culture and language with Miss Alexander.

They had great fun learning about the symbols which represent Ireland.

The children in year three even did Irish dancing for the first time! We danced to traditional Irish music and the children in year three made a really big effort to try their best to Irish dance. It has to be said that they were all very impressive.



They also learned how to speak some Gaelic words and phrases from Ireland. They might tell you some if you ask them.

Welcome back 3M! The last two days have been very exciting for us. We did lots of fun activities to get to know each other. We had treasure hunts in the class room to find out about each other and the teacher.

We went outside to create human venn diagrams by sorting out information about our family. We learned about our new topic ‘Reach for the Stars’ which is about working towards our goals. We agreed that we all want to strive to do our best in year 3.

Tomorrow 3M will be agreeing on our targets for the year ahead so we can continue to reach for the stars. It is very exciting for us all and we look forward to doing lots of new learning in the year ahead.
