Welcome to Owl Class
We are Year 3 children (7-8 years) and there are 24 children in our class. Our teacher is Miss Hodgson and she is supported by our teaching assistant Mrs Bonner. We are taught in our single-aged class on a morning and then merge with Squirrel Class (Year 4) on an afternoon so we also work with Miss Robertson and Miss Hunter.
To find out what we will be doing this year, take a look at the Our Curriculum section of our website. To help us with our spelling and reading, take a look at the phonics and reading section of our website. As we get older, we access the internet more and school wants us to stay safe online. To find out how you can support us in staying safe online, check out the Online Safety section of our website.
Keep an eye on this page to see what we get up to!
