    • Year 3 - St. Teresa and St. Jeanne Jugan

    Welcome to Year Three 2026/2027

    Mrs Muirhead and Miss Simpson are so happy to welcome our new students to Year three.  We are so excited to get to know all of them and can't wait to discover all of their talents. Our expectations are high but the children will be rewarded by making good progress which will help them achieve all they are capable of.

    Our aim is that all children will get an extremely well-balanced curriculum as we understand the importance of learning opportunities that can be gained from delivering a broad curriculum. As part of maintaining our rich curriculum, your children will have many enrichment opportunities to reach out to the world around them through prayer, words, work and play.

    Kind Reminders

    Please ensure your child brings a coat to school every day as they will be going outside for break time when it is raining. 

    Please send your child into school with a water bottle every day. 

    Most children require a snack at morning break to keep them going through the day. If you are intending to send in healthy snacks with your child please limit them to the list below. 

    • Vegetable sticks – such as celery, cucumber, peppers or carrot, a range of colour ensures different vitamins and minerals. 
    • A piece of cheddar cheese or babybel 
    • A piece of fresh or dried fruit, high in soluble fibre and vitamins would also be a great snack– pineapple, mango, kiwi, plain raisins, apricots, blueberries, banana slices. 
    • Bread sticks, plain pretzels, banana bread, malt loaf, oat/rice cakes and small pitta breads are also good snacks, providing children with carbohydrate to sustain them in-between meals. 
    • Homemade snack - flapjacks or other oat/whole grain based snack. These must be nut free. Items brought into school should be carefully checked by you, to ensure this. St. Mary’s RC Primary School has pupils who are severely allergic to a range of nuts. 

    Please remember to adhere to the uniform policy which includes no trainers, unless it is P.E days.
