Year 3 – Tuesday 14th April – Easter Holiday

Good Morning Year 3

Wow, hasn’t the weather been fabulous! We hope you had a super Easter weekend with your families and managed some fresh air too. We have planned some more activities for you this week, please remember these are optional and you could do any lovely activities. Having a break is important too so do take some time, maybe find a quiet place and a good book to read.

We are still replying to emails, so do email us to say hello, show us your work, ask a question or tell us what you have been up to. Our email address is year3@stmarksce.org.uk. Please do get in touch with us. 

Don’t forget our competition!

We are so proud of you all, we know this is a tricky time for many so stay positive and remember we will be back together! Have a super week, keep smiling!

Good Luck – send your pictures to us at year3@stmarksce.org.uk.


Deadline for Entries: Sunday 19th April.
 
We can’t wait to see your entries. 

Share your work!

We’d love to share a piece of artwork your child has done. It can be of anything – a rainbow for the NHS, a piece of home learning, a poster, a drawing, a painting, a design, anything! Just make sure you only send in a photo of the work, not the child or anything on the photo that may identify them (e.g. full name). Simply email it to posters@stmarksce.org.uk and we’ll do the rest! We’ll make a video montage of it, and share it on our website. We would love to have as many entries as possible. Closing date is Sunday 19th April!
