This weekend Rishi said he would like to use initiative and make his favourite breakfast i.e. pancakes . He did most of the work from sifting the flour to mixing the mixture and even flipping the pancake , although not all of it turned out great , but he did use his initiative to do all the work . He really enjoyed it .
Are you up for a challenge? Following on from Mrs Whinnett’s PSHE lesson on initiative, you have been set the challenge of showing us how you use your initiative outside school. Ask someone to take a photo of you to show us how you have completed the challenge and add it to this post with a description of what you did.

Don’t wait to be told – be a Self starter!
In class the boys have been carrying out science investigations, working on their scientific questioning and predictions.
Here are some photos of an investigation into mass and an investigation trying to prove heat rises.
The boys have had a wonderful start to the afternoon investigating ancient artifacts. Can you tell what they were used for?
A HUGE thank you for all the gifts and lovely messages. I have had a wonderful year with your amazing boys; I am going to miss them so much! Have a brilliant Summer holiday… x
Thank you so much for all of your kind wishes and generous gifts. I was totally overwhelmed this morning (and unable to speak to say thank you!). I have loved teaching your sons and watching them grow and develop this year. They are a super bunch of boys and I will miss them all! It’s also been a real privilege to teach alongside Mrs Cortes, Mrs Rose and Mrs Owens – they are amazing and I will also miss them terribly!
Have a wonderful summer and thank you once again!
With best wishes, Emma O’Brien
3R had a very calming mindfulness session this afternoon with Tricia Jones. We spent time focusing on our senses and becoming a frog yoda!
Over half term the boys were asked to create a persuasive, factual presentation about an endangered animal of their choice. The year group would then vote for their favourite animal to be sponsored through the WWF. I have been so impressed by the amount of research completed, quality and organisation of facts (posters and PowerPoint presentations) and passionate deliveries.
It was a very close vote but Year 3 has decided to sponsor the giant panda (3R) and the Amur leopard (3CO).
Well done to everyone! Outstanding effort!
Wow… what an amazing collection of creative, colourful characters! Well done 3R (and parents!).
This week the boys worked industriously on creating 3D monsters or Iron Man models, using materials collected over half term. I was really impressed with their creativity, resourcefulness, patience and support of each other. Bravo 3R!
