World Book Day!

10/3/2025

 
What a lovely day we had for World Book Day. 
It was so nice to share stories and listen to new ones that we haven't heard before. Everyone really fab getting dressed up for the day  and made the day feel special. It was so lovely for our grown ups to come in and share stories with us at the end of the day too. Our favourite part was drinking hot chocolate and having a chocolate biscuit.
​ Here are some of our pictures taken from the day. 

Roman Day!

10/3/2025

 
We had such a fantastic time on our Roman day. We learnt about the different Roman Emperors and how they ruled. Maximus also taught us how to play a Roman game and gave us artefacts to look at. We ended the day learning more weapons and battles the Romans had when they took over Britain. It was such a super day. Take a look at the fun we had.

Estimating And Measuring Mass

26/1/2025

 
This week we looked at a range of objects and then gave an estimate of how many grams each object weighed. We had to give a sensible estimate that would be close to the actual mass. First, we added the object to our results table and then we estimated the mass and recorded this to the table. After that, we used a pan balance to weigh each object and then recorded the actual weight. We were able to see if our estimates were good or not by comparing the weights.

Odd Socks Day

17/11/2024

 
As part of anti bullying week, we celebrated Odd Socks Day showing that we are all unique but all valued. We talked about how we should respect one another and our differences. We also talked about how if we see any signs of bullying or are worried about our friends we know who we can talk to in school and outside of school. 
Everyone was excited to see each other in odd socks.

Fire Safety Talk

18/9/2024

 
Yesterday we had two special visitors in school from the South Yorkshire Fire Service to talk to all children in year 3 about fire safety. It was really interesting and we learnt how to keep safe in the event of a fire.  We also learnt about what the fire service do and found out that they also rescue people when they are in danger.

When there is a fire we now know that we need to have an escape plan, especially if we are at home. It is really important to practise your fire escape plan so that you are prepared if a fire occurs at home. Fire is really dangerous. If our clothes catch fire we know that we should STOP, DROP and ROLL to put it out. Not only did we learn about fire, we also learnt about road and water safety. We know how to use roads carefully, wearing a helmet if we are out on our bikes and how to make a star with our bodies in the water if we get into difficulties. Take a look at our pictures. 

Super Science!

18/9/2024

 
In science we have been learning how to make a circuit. We were able to make a circuit that worked to light a light bulb. We experimented with the circuit equipment to create different circuits. We then tried making lots of different circuits, it was really fun.   

Maths- Right Angles

4/3/2024

 
 In our maths session today, we made an angle maker and a right-angle checker. We discussed what an angle is. We discovered that we can turn the angle by a quarter, half, three quarters and a full turn. The amount of turn between the two arms the angle. We then made some small angle makers and found that when we made the same angle with the larger angle maker, the angles were still the same size. After that, we learnt about right angles and found the angle at a ‘square corner’ is called a right angle and is also a one-quarter turn. We made a right-angle check and investigated right angles in the environment and used the angle maker to help check the right angle.

​Look at how much fun we had! 

Our Trip to the Sculpture Park

26/11/2023

 
We went on a lovely trip to the Yorkshire Sculpture Park and had a great time looking at all the different sculptures in the park and learning about the different artist that had created them. We visited a chapel with lights inside that were voice activated it was amazing. We had a walk around all the sculptures and then came back to the base for lunch. After that we go to go on a tour of the sculpture park with an artist called POI. She told us about each piece of art and gave us a sketch book to draw some of the sculptures. We were about to answer questions about the materials used and techniques to create them from the knowledge we had gained in our art lessons at school. Poi was impressed with our knowledge. What a super day we had. Take a look at our pictures of the day. 

Odd Socks Day!

26/11/2023

 
 We celebrated Anti Bullying week with wearing odd socks to show we are unique and we are united against bullying. we have completed lots of different activities to celebrate. We discussed the people we can speak to if we feel like we are getting bullied, witness bullying or need advice about it. As a school we all know that we have lots of trusted adults around us to speak to and at Athersley South we promise to 'Make a Noise' against bullying. Take a look at our pictures from the day of our children across school.

Getting Creative With Clay

24/10/2023

 

Getting Creative With Clay

In art this week we have had lots of fun manipulating clay to make a dragon eye. We were able to use the skills that we have been learning in art to bring our designs to life. We used a special cutter to create our dragon eye shape base and then carefully looked at our designs to then recreate this in clay. We learnt how to score the clay that we wanted to attach to the base and use water to help us to smooth the clay down to give it a nice finish. We used tools to help us create markings and cut out shapes to add to to our designs.  We were able to add details such as a crest and scales using these techniques. We are really proud of how they have turned out and can't wait to paint them and add in the dragon eye!
