Change of date for Year 3 Class Assembly

Dear Parents,
I am very sorry if this causes any inconvenience to you, but unfortunately I need to change the date of the Year 3 Class Assembly. This will now take place a week later that previously scheduled and will therefore be on Friday 12th July (at the same time of 9.20 a.m.)
This is because I need to attend a family funeral.
Thank you,
Duncan MacBean

Home Learning (week of 24th June) -Design a Mascot

Home Learning Activity Year 3 Week of 24^th June

It has been brought to my attention that the Dorset County Hospital NHS Foundation Trust is running competition for school children in Dorchester.

The competition is to design a mascot that children can identify with for the hospital to use on their “Children’s Services Webpage”.

I thought that this might be a nice “home learning” activity for the children in Year 3 this week:

The children can paint, draw, or photograph, or use an Art programme on the computer to create their mascots.

Bring the work in to school as usual and I will send the children’s work as entries to the competition.

Thank you

Duncan MacBean

No choir or orchestra this week...

Just to remind all that this Thurs 20th June there will be no choir or orchestra as I am out of school for the day. We will be rehearsing though on Tues 25th June ready for the concert so keep practising!

Musical Soiree

Musical Soiree

This is a short reminder of our Musical Soiree taking place on Tuesday

25th June at 6.00pm at the Dorchester Middle School.

We moved the venue as we have exceeded our school’s capacity! Please also

recall that the performance is not suitable for small children to attend.

Finally, I am assuming that all children are taking part unless you have

informed the office or me?!  If your child would like to be involved and has lessons outside of school then please also see me!

As this is the sole concert of the year

expectations are that all children learning music at the school would

endeavour to be there. Thank you! Mrs Mewett

Mr F's thoughts on Home Learning in Year 3!

Mr F was so impressed when he looked at Year 3 's Home Learning about the Vikings! Keep it up for the rest of this term!

Home Learning - week of Mon 17th June- "Food to the Table"

"Food to the Table"

The children are finding out about things that people have for breakfast. They are considering where things are grown and what happens to them before they arrive on the breakfast table, for example shipping, processing, slaughtering, refining, packaging, drying, bottling, transporting – depending on the food/drink.

The children need to think of some more examples and continue the table that they have started at school.

Thank you for your help,
