Year 3

3W and 3F

We are the Year 3 classroom teachers; Mr Williams (3W) and Miss Fulton (3F), alongside us are Mrs Tsopa and Mrs French (Higher Level Teaching Assistants).

We are incredibly excited to be teaching your children this year in the Year 3. We practice an open-door policy in our classrooms, which means if parents have any questions or need anything from us, please do not hesitate to contact us. You can also catch either of us at the end of the day. We aim to respond to any queries as soon as we can. We are so looking forward to working with your children this year and we cannot wait to see the fantastic achievements that they are going to make.
