Meet your teacher
Mr Sutherill
Hello Year 3. My name is Mr Sutherill and I will be your new class teacher. I can’t wait to get started and guide you through your first year in Key Stage 2. I am really looking forward to providing you with amazing and exciting learning opportunities which will make this a year to remember.
Outside of school, I am a huge sports fan. My main hobbies are playing golf and running – I try to do both as much as I can in my spare time. I also love to watch football and I am a big Manchester United fan. My dog, Eric, helps me keep active and we often go on walks.
Reading is another big part of my life. I love to read every day and enjoy reading lots of different genres of books. My other main interest is travelling. I find new places fascinating and try to visit as many different places as I can – my aim is to visit 50 countries in my lifetime.
Miss Roper
I am Miss Roper your headteacher, but I will also be teaching in Y3 on Friday and I cannot wait! I love reading and want all of our children at Ashwood to dream big and become the best possible version of themselves. We will be doing music and PE on Fridays as well.
Areas of Learning
We have an exciting curriculum planned and the children will be taught exciting lessons which will enable them to become geographers, historians, scientists to name just a few. We have planned some wonderful learning opportunities for the children and will be taking part in some exciting class visits to further support our learning at school.
In English, we will continue to use a wide range of quality texts that children will love reading and bringing to life through creative activities and support our writing.
Our maths learning will continue building on our understanding of number and support us with becoming more fluent with our number facts and knowledge of multiplication and division and how to use this in real life situations.
