PSHE (Personal, Social and Health Education)
From Years 3 to 6, pupils learn about themselves as growing and changing individuals with their own experiences and ideas, and as members of their communities. They become more mature, independent and self-confident. They learn about the wider world and the interdependence of communities within it. They develop their sense of social justice and moral responsibility and begin to understand that their own choices and behaviour can affect local, national or global issues and political and social institutions. They learn how to take part more fully in school and community activities. As they begin to develop into young adults, they face the changes of puberty and transfer to secondary school with support and encouragement. They learn how to make more confident and informed choices about their health and environment; to take more responsibility, individually and as a group, for their own learning; and to resist bullying.

A visit from baby Rose
On Thursday 14th June my mum and baby sister called Rose came in to school to visit Year 3.
Year 3 had been learning about how babies grow and develop. We had seen baby lambs and now we saw a real baby girl!
My mum answered lots of questions. We learnt that Rose has no teeth but some babies are born with teeth, and that she was 53 centimetres long now.
