It has been a very festive week in Y3. The children wrote their letters to Father Christmas and posted them. They are very excited to see if he replies.

RCM enjoyed bring their teddies to school. They wrote a letter to Santa to ask for a friend for their teddy.

RCM worked together to solve some addition calculations using cubes.
