Year 3/4 Blogpost 18.03.22

Dear Parents/Carers,
We hope you are having a great week and are looking forward to some lovely Spring sunshine over the coming days.

EGGSHELLS

Thanks so much to all of you who kindly collected egg shells for our science experiment. We will be conducting this investigation in the afternoon sessions next week. Ask your children for details!

PTA FUNDRAISING FOR COMIC RELIEF

We had a lovely day wearing our noses in support of Red Nose Day. The children took part in the "Make You Smile Dance Challenge" in the morning. In the afternoon we all took part in a Red Nose and Spoon Race. Thanks so much to all your generous donations towards our Red Nose Day. Our Red Noses were all SOLD OUT! Keep your eye out on our newsletter for the total amount of money raised including the Tuck Shop sale after school.

FUNDRAISING FOR UKRAINE

On Friday 1st April, the children will be able to wear blue and yellow clothes (non-uniform) to school to help raise money for the humanitarian crisis in Ukraine - suggested donation £1.

We will be continuing to discuss the situation with the children as the crisis has been the dominant story in Newround. We are very much focusing on the Rights of the Child and how the invasion has meant that children are not getting their right to be safe from harm, the right to a home and the right to go to school. The children are very much used to looking at evernts and situations by relating these to our rights but if you have any concerns please let us know beforehand.

Must Do

• Reading: Remember 15-20 minutes everyday is super important. You will have taken your Reading Record home for your parents to comment on. These will be collected by teachers and checked regularly. Please bring your homework books back to school when you are finished so that we can check them. Thank you.
• Please make sure that your child is continuing to read and work on the Year 3 and 4 spellings which can be found in their reading record books. 
• Accelerated Reader - when you are finished your book your teacher can change it for you. As soon as you are ready you can take a quiz at school. Remember that you need 3 100% scores to move up a level
