Welcome to Maple Class!
Years 3 and 4
Welcome to Maple class, we hope you all had a lovely summer and are ready for a busy term.
Useful information
- Children will bring home a new reading record which can be used to show their thoughts about the books they read. There is also space for parents/carers to add comments after the children have read to them.
- PE days this term are mostly on Tuesday and Friday. However plans can change and having a PE kit in school for the week is always a good idea.
- Forest school will be on Thursday when the children will need full length trousers and long sleeved shirts as well as wellies and waterproofs.
On the web class page are documents related to homework and what the children will be learning this term.
If you have any ideas for our class page, please let us know!
