Year 3 Newsletter - Week 1 Term 3

24th April 2021

Dear Parent/Guardian,

We are glad to see all the Braestars looking so relaxed and keeping safe. We welcome every child and each one of you back to the last leg of this academic year.

Our Braestars have displayed commendable resilience and enthusiasm as they have settled in fairly well. They are able to consult their timetables and locate the Meet links with ease which ensures that they get to class on time for all lessons.

Most children also submit completed tasks as instructed which is reviewed and necessary feedback is shared with the pupils. We encourage the children to use the weekend to complete any unfinished tasks which will reduce the backlog.

We appreciate your support and look forward to finishing the term successfully.

Announcements

Projects

Starting next week, the children will begin receiving instructions for the Science, History and Geography projects they are to work on this term. We appeal for your support to provide any necessary resources that your child may need for the tasks. However, we request that your child takes the lead while working on these projects.

The submission dates are staggered to ensure that the children complete each project in good time. The projects will then be assessed and awarded marks which will account for 50% of the end of term tests in each of the three subjects.
