Third Sunday of Advent: Joy

The crowds asked John, “What, then, shall we do?” And he answered them, “Whoever has two tunics is to share with him who has none, and whoever has food is to do likewise.”

Luke 3:10-11

Children will understand that:

  • We are called to open our lives to Jesus through our words and actions, at Advent and beyond.

  • Jesus changes those who invite Him into their lives.

  • Our actions can share the love, kindness and generosity of Jesus to others.

At Our Lady's we like to support our parents/carers in Online Safety matters. 

Keeping children and young people safe online is one of the biggest challenges facing society today and it is all of our responsibility to ensure that children are educated to make positive, informed choices when they are online.

This month’s online safety guide gives helpful advice about…

What Parents & Educators Need to Know about Snapchat. This free guide brings you up to date with the risks associated with Snapchat, and lets you know how best to safeguard young people who use the app.

We hope you find these guides informative and helpful in promoting the positive use of technology to make the online world a better and safer place for us all. Thank you.

Our learning this week…

In RE, we have been continuing our topic ‘Prophecy and Promise’. This week we have explored the meaning of the Advent candles, considering the themes of hope, peace, joy and love. The children enjoyed reflecting on ways we can ‘live out’ these qualities during Advent, and then wrote their own Advent promises.

In English we have been busy writing our own fables, following our story mountain plans and including a range of vocabulary, to develop use of detail and description.

In Maths we have been consolidating our knowledge of multiplication and division, We have been using multiplication and division grids and we have also focused on strategies to support finding remainders in division.

In History, we have been continuing our topic on ‘The Stone Age’. This week we have been considering the differences and similarities between Stone Age, Bronze Age and Iron Age with a particular focus on Houses and farming.
