Ash Class - Years 3 and 4
Our class assembly is on Thursday 27th November 2025 at 9am
Our Team is made up of:
Miss Wade - Class Teacher
Mrs Dodd - HLTA
Miss Berry - HLTA
Welcome to the Autumn Term in Ash Class!
This term, we are diving into the amazing era of The Victorians. The children will be discovering what everyday life was like during this period, learning all about Queen Victoria herself, and finding out how Victorian inventions shaped the world we live in today. We'll also be exploring how many of these ideas have changed and developed over time.
In English, our class read is the much-loved How To Train Your Dragon by Cressida Cowell. This story is full of adventure, humour, and imagination, and we'll be using it to spark the children's creativity in their writing. From diary entries and book reviews to descriptive passages, the children will have plenty of opportunities to develop their literacy skills in fun and meaningful ways.
Further down, you'll find our class timetable which sets out the structure of our week. You'll also see when our spelling and times table tests take place. We do not give out homework in Ash class, however we do appreciate your support in helping your children learn weekly spellings, read regularly at home, and practise their times tables.
If you have any queries please ask.
