Head of Year Welcome

Hello! 

My name is Mrs. Qamran and I am the head of year 3. Year 3 is such an exciting year and the start of key stage 2. Children are able to become more independent with their learning and build key skills to support their learning journey going forward. We have a jam packed year of learning fun. Topics include Ancient Egypt and Ancient Greece, Mansa Musa and Earthquakes. We will be reading amazing texts such as The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Iron Man and Into the Jungle. In Writing, children will take on the roles and writing styles of story writers, biographers and newspaper journalists!
