Year 3 - Pandas Class
Hello - we are Pandas Class!
Based in the modern part of the school, we are taught by Miss Sowerby; Miss Smith and Miss Warland also support us with our learning.
As we move into Key Stage 2, we have plenty of new challenges and experiences to look forward to, from learning French for the first time to our inspiring topics: Stone Age, rainforests and mountains/rivers/coasts.
