Year 3/4

Welcome to Year 3/4!

Hello everyone and welcome to the Year 3/4 page! We hope that you had a relaxing half-term and that you're ready to jump into a new topic. Our new topic is going to be...THE ANGLO SAXONS!

Are you ready to step back in time and walk among the Vikings and Anglo Saxons in their battle for England. We will be learning about what food they ate and how they lived. What did they do for fun without Nintendo Switches or fidget toys?

We are also excited to announce our new trip to Kentwell Hall. Look out for more information about easy Tudor costumes and other details.

We are counting down the days until the Year 4 Grafham Water residentials.

It's an exciting time to be in Year 3/4!

Did you know:

The Anglo Saxons were made up of three tribes who came over from Europe. Can you find out the names of these tribes and where they came from?

The Anglo Saxons didn't like the stone houses built by the Romans. What type of houses did the Anglo Saxons live in? Can you build a model Anglo Saxon house?

Many towns and villages have Anglo-Saxon names, including “England” which comes from the Saxon word “Angle-Land”. What other examples of Anglo Saxon place names can you find?

Anglo-Saxons made their own clothes out of natural materials. Can you find out what materials they used?

What other facts can you find?

PE Days

On your child's PE days, they need to come to school in their PE kit. Leave watches or jewellery at home, and please tie long hair back before coming to school. We will be doing outdoor PE all winter, so jumpers, hats and even gloves are required if it is very cold.
