Coming soon!# Our very own fashion show! #We are so excited!, by Miss Hughes
Date: 10th Mar 2016 @ 3:50pm
During TGIF this term I have been working with children from years 3,4,5 and ,6 to create some new dresses and bags you will never have seen before. We are using plastic shopping bags, carrier bags (all shapes and sizes) and bin bags. The children have been designing and creating their ideas over the past few weeks. They are looking amazing and we have got some talented fashion designers here at Queen's Park. To celebrate the talent we have found we are working on presenting our designs in a fashion show later this term. Move over New York fashion week and welcome Queen's Park fashion design extravaganza. All the children that have been designing their dresses and bags will be wearing them in the show.
We can't wait to show them off!

Every week in Q3 we earn marbles everytime an adult has noticed us making the right choices and being good friends. Each marble is worth 2 minutes. Over the past few weeks,Q3 have earned 56 minutes (Miss Hughes has decided to round it up to an hour!).
Last week we decided we would like to have a PJ afternoon.- slippers, teddies, popcorn and a film in our pyjamas.
Well done Q3! You have really shown me that you can be the best class in the world!
Stone Age Boy left a message, by Miss Hughes
Date: 10th Mar 2016 @ 2:46pm
On our way back from worship on Monday, we noticed that something was different about our classroom. The lights had been turned off and there seemed to be lots of objects out on the tables. After opening the door we began to investigate the objects to see what they might be for.
Stone age boy has been leaving us notes each day this week, giving us missions to complete. He has been sending Miss Hughes video messages to check up on our writing. He left lots of ancient artefacts to inspire our writing. This week, we have been learning about main and subordinate clauses to form interesting sentences. Our challenge is to write an 100 word saga by the end of the week. The best stories will be published in a book .
We can't wait to show them off.

What a busy Monday , by Mrs Kellett
Date: 7th Mar 2016 @ 8:23pm
Today I launched our'Waste Week' with a whole school assembly on how we can 'Go Greener'. The children loved the youtube clip we showed made by Disney and two famous characters from the Lion King. Then we had a very important visitor to school all the way from London. Rebecca is from Maths Mastery in London and she came to see how our children were learning Maths. She was so impressed with the children's ability to reason and talk about their work. Well done everyone involved. It is so lovely to be able to show off all our great work to visitors

Library visit!, by Miss McCormack
Date: 26th Feb 2016 @ 7:57am
Yesterday, we had the opportunity to visit the library to listen to a fantastic storyteller, who shared extracts from 'The Last Try' by Tom Palmer.
He reenacted the story of Jack Harrison, a young man who played for Hull FC and was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions during the First World War.
The children were mesmerized by the storyteller's performance and were very keen to borrow the book from the library.
I would also like to thank the parent helpers who came with us on our trip and made it possible for both year 3 classes to be able to enjoy this experience.
