We have had a very busy week again in Year 3.  The weather was perfect for our trip to Fishbourne Roman Palace. Thank you for sending in your children with full water bottles and sunscreen to keep them safe in the Sun.  We had a workshop where the children were able to build bridges, use ancient (replica) artefacts and dress up as Romans for the session.  They thoroughly enjoyed it! We then had chance to explore the museum and the surrounding gardens which are stunning especially on a beautiful day.

Friday the fun continued with our STEM day.  Today we became employees for the research department at LEGO.  The children had various challenges to work on throughout the day such as building a tower out of Lego 1 metre tall; creating a marble maze; building a pyramid at least 15cm tall; and building a bridge to cross a 30cm gap and hold a 1kg weight. The children rose to the challenges and were very successful.  We were particularly impressed with their resilience especially when a challenge seemed quite difficult.

Home learning has been sent home today.  Don’t forget we check and stick in new home learning on a Friday.

Have a lovely time at the St Peter’s Fest and enjoy the sun over the weekend – at last!
