Class 2 - RBK Federation

‘Each child is truly known. There is absolutely no blending into the crowd/background and being missed.’

‘Our child thrives both socially and academically and is well supported in both areas. She always looks forward to school!’

‘We can’t recommend the school enough, we are sad that we are entering our last term here and won’t have the joy of watching the federation go from strength to strength with strong leaders who interact with the children and put their safety, wellbeing first.’

Our Teaching Federation is proud to be partnered with Initial Teachers Training Providers- Leeds Beckett, Leeds Trinity, Red Kite and York St John.

Proud to be a ‘Teaching Federation’ supporting Initial Teacher Training Students and Early Career Teachers.

Growing together, guided by love to ensue the future of excellence in education.

At our federation, we recognise that Oracy is a vital skill that empowers children to express themselves confidently and effectively in all areas of life. Speaking, listening and communication; learn to - learn through - learn about.

Welcome to Class 2

This term our topic in Geography is ‘Why are rainforests important to us?’ For our DT project we will be making levers, pivots and linkages in order to make a moving monster. In English, we are using the book, ‘Mr Majeika’ to write a story ending, a non-chronological report and a cinquain poem!

In Maths, we will be continuing our work on multiplication and division before moving onto length and height and finally mass and capacity. Year 3’s will also do some work on fractions. In Science, our topic is ‘Light and Shadow’ where the children will explore why light reflects and why our shadows will change during different times of the day. In Computing, the children will create pictograms and binary trees and in PSHE we will focus on the ‘Healthy Me’ topic, where we will learn what a healthy diet looks like and how to use medicines safely.
