Learning in Year 3
A more detailed look our expectations for each year group can be found by exploring the subject pages under the curriculum tab.
To support our understanding of our topics we have planned exciting learning beyond the classroom events which will enrich our curriculum and give our children the opportunity to take part in learning experiences outside of the classroom. Our proposed events this year are:
- Forest Schools
- Murton Park - A day in the life of a Roman soldier
- Bewerley Park Outdoor Learning Centre - canoeing and treasure hunt
- Visit to a Hindu Temple with music workshop
- Yorkshire Sculpture Park with artist workshop
