Today we marked the passing of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II. Year 3 spent time discussing and researching aspects of her amazing life and produced a piece of work with pictures and well wishes. The children shared their own emotions and thoughts in a mature and respectful way.

One of our students brought in a letter she had received from Buckingham palace during lockdown. She had decided to write a letter to the Queen wishing her well and sent her a picture. We enjoyed reading the letter together and sharing this memory.

This week year 3 worked through the Rhubarb beds weeding and removing debris. We learnt that we don't harvest at this time of the year so that the Rhubarb can build up energy stores to make it through winter and allow it to produce well next year. @RHSSchools Year 3 Ashbridge

Today we got to explore examples of the places of worship that surround us in our community. We went to a mosque, a hindu temple and a church. We were all warmly welcomed in by the people we have met and enjoyed learning about the different traditions that take place here.

This morning, we explored Ancient Egyptian artefacts at the National Museums Liverpool World Museum in Liverpool. We explored the exhibit in detail and enjoyed looking at the preserved mummies and all of the other artefacts in the exhibit.

In our afternoon workshop, we got to 'Meet the Mummy!'. This involved us travelling back in time and becoming ancient Egyptian priests. We learnt the process of mummification and the important parts of this ancient ritual. We all enjoyed learning about this gory part of history!

Well done to the school council for their fantastic harvest assembly. Ashbridge School
