Milnthorpe Primary School

Mr Woodburn teaches in Year 3 and he is supported by Mrs Young. Year 3 is a very exciting year as the children make the transition from KS1 to KS2. They are encouraged to become more independent both in themselves and in their learning.

Our topics are varied and interesting, ranging from the Egyptians to the Stone Age in History and Volcanoes and Local Studies in Geography.

Year 3 is and exciting, engaging and entertaining classroom where the children work hard and play hard. They are challenged to ensure they achieve their full potential and learn how to become lifelong learners along the way, continually asking questions and wanting to improve. 

"I can't do it...yet" is often heard as they tackle tricky problems on their never ending learning journey.

Mr Woodburn is also the Computing subject leader so there are often a variety of new and exciting technologies appearing in the classroom to engage and educate the children. These range from 3D printers, robots, augmented reality and Microbits. All ensuring the children learn valuable skills in an ever-changing world where the jobs they might do in the future haven’t been invented yet….
