3B Beech’s Base

Class 3B had a fab time at Beech’s Base today, despite the actual Beech’s Base site being waterlogged! They made animal skeletons as part of Science / Stone Age history work, ate some marshmallows and generally enjoyed being outside!

 

Islamophobia Awareness Month – Assembly

Today, the children in Yr 3, 4 & 6 took part in an assembly looking at Islamophobia Awareness Month.

We discussed what Islamophobia is, the impact it has on individuals and what we, as members of NJS, can do to make a difference. The theme for this year is ‘Seeds of change’ and reflects on how we can all make a small difference by taking action.

At NJS, we pride ourselves on being an inclusive, welcoming and loving environment and this was discussed with the children including how we could all make a difference to the world around us.

Yr 3 Fire Safety Talk with Charlie

Year 3 Messages/Diary Dates

Diary Dates

Both classes are Beech’s Base next week – children need to remember EXTRA layers, gloves, hat and a sensible change of footwear – they need to be dressed appropriately to access our forest provision.

Christmas

Year 3 Tradition

As is tradition for Year 3 children’s first Christmas at NJS, if they would like to donate and place a Christmas decoration onto the main Christmas tree in the school hall, then please start to bring these into class. Children will then have the opportunity to place their decoration on to the tree on Tuesday 3rd December. These will then go into the decoration box ready to rejuvenate our supplies for future years.

Performance

Over the next week children will be assigned parts for our Christmas performance  “The Bethlehem Bake Off!” Children will be asked by Mr B and myself what type of part they would like – please support your child when they receive their lines (please note – no part is huge, so therefore all parts are suitable for Year 3 children to learn!) We will also be sending home a possible costume list, please support your child with their costume, or speak to Mr B or myself who could support you.

PE

Due to “Christmas!” PE times and hall times become very limited – and with the weather outside time becomes limited too! Please send PE kits in with your child for the whole week and we will try and get a PE lesson in when appropriate! Once performances are completed both classes will make up their PE time!

many thanks for you support

Mr B and Mr M

3M Snowplay

3M had super fun at break time playing in the snow, however it took us the rest of the day to thaw out!

How to eat well, in Class 3B!

Yesterday, Class 3B took part in a Sugar Awareness session, called ‘Eatwell’, which gave the children a surprising insight into how much sugar is contained in everyday foods and drinks. Did you know that there are 15 cubes of sugar in a 500ml bottle of Coca-Cola?! 3B didn’t, but they do now!

 

Homework Gallery, by Class 3B!

Wow, 3B! You have blown us away with your responses to the homework tasks this term. Some of these must have taken ages! All children who submit homework receive lots of house points for their team. Well done all of you, and I look forward to the next project!

3B raised awareness during Antibullying Week

Last week saw 3B raising awareness of Antibullying Week by taking part in Odd Socks Day, and completing an assembly in class about respect.

I’m in ‘The Beano’!

Congratulations to Ruby, who managed to have her letter to ‘The Beano’ comic published! Well done Ruby!
