Welcome to
3K-The Olympians
Hello and an enormous welcome to our Year 3K class page!
My name is Miss Kolaitis, I am the teacher in 3K, support is provided by Miss Swinney and Miss Collins. We are really looking forward to meeting you all and I hope you will share our enthusiasm for a busy year ahead!
In our classroom, we will endeavour to uphold the school ethos of Enjoy, Respect and Succeed throughout all aspects of school life in our calm and nurturing learning environment. Together, we will combine hard work with lots of fun, empowering us to become confident, passionate and successful learners. We follow a theme based curriculum which will involve some fantastic topics such as looking at history in our local area, the invasion of the Romans, and will go back to prehistoric times looking at the Stone Age to Bronze age.
I believe a problem shared is a problem solved so if there are any worries or issues please do not hesitate to contact me through school or at the door. I will always endeavour to resolve any concerns to the best of my ability.
Class Dojo is used to send any class news or messages so please do make sure you are connected.
