Year 3

As part of their history topic on Empires and Emperors, Year 3 spent their morning learning just what it was like to live as a Roman. In the afternoon, they had to make an important decision; should they embrace this way of life, or should they march in Roman army formation in order to defend their land?
On Wednesday morning, selected Year 3 and 4 children went to Honiton Community College for a science workshop on pendulums! They found that the longer the length of the pendulum, the longer it took to complete one full swing. 
On Tuesday afternoon, Year 3 welcomed Margaret and Mike from Honiton Evangelical Congregational Church. They talked to the children about the history of Honiton and the church, and explained the church's role in the Christian community today.
