2025-2026
Welcome to Primary 3!
I am so happy to welcome everyone back to school and into our Primary 3 class. We have lots of exciting things planned this term and we can’t wait to get started!
This term, we’ll be reading George’s Marvellous Medicine by Roald Dahl—a fun and silly story that will help us with our reading and writing. In art, we’ll learn about Vincent van Gogh and paint pictures of the autumn landscape using bright colours and bold brushstrokes.
We’ll also be learning about money at home—how we use it, save it, and make good choices. This will help us understand how money works in everyday life.
One of our key themes this term is respect. We’ll be learning what it means to show respect to others, to ourselves, and to the world around us. Some of our respect activities will include:
- Role-playing kind and respectful behaviour in different situations
- Creating a class “Respect Tree” where children add leaves with examples of respectful actions
- Reading stories that show characters being respectful and discussing what we can learn from them
- Practising listening skills and taking turns during group work and play
Outside, we’re looking forward to using our new Key Stage One outdoor space. We’ll also be planting and growing things in our new polytunnel, which will help us learn about nature and healthy eating.
As we begin this new school year, we say a prayer for our class:
Dear God, thank you for our Primary 3 class. Help us to learn new things, be kind to each other, show respect, and enjoy every day. Keep us safe and happy this year. Amen.
Please keep checking the school website for updates and photos of what we’re doing in class!
Wishing all my children a wonderful and happy year in Primary Three.
