Our Class Learning Journey!

Week Beginning Monday 1st September 2025

What a wonderful week we’ve had in Year 3!

We’ve been settling into our new classroom and learning spaces, exploring school and class rules, and getting used to our new routines.

This week, we enjoyed the story The Magical Yet. In the story, a girl struggles to ride her bike despite trying every day. Then, the Magical Yet appears to remind her that some goals take days, weeks, months, or even years to achieve — and that’s okay. It’s not that she can’t do it, she just can’t do it yet!

The children then created their own Magical Yets to remind themselves that they too can achieve anything with perseverance, even if it takes time. Their Yets are now displayed around the classroom to inspire and motivate them throughout the year.

The children also wrote letters to their future selves, describing what they can do now and what they hope to accomplish by the end of the year. It has been such a joy to read their goals — from learning to swim, to earning a Mrs. Taylor Award, to receiving a pen licence!

We also shared our first collective worship, reflecting on the story of Jesus visiting Mary and Martha. We discussed how Jesus remained calm when Martha was upset, and how we can follow Mary’s example by spending a few quiet moments each day in prayer and time with Jesus.
