Meet your teacher
miss Clark-Green
Hello Y3! My name is Miss Clark-Green and I am so excited to be your new teacher in September! This will be my first year at Monkwood and I am so excited to get to know you all! At home I have a small kitten called Oliver who keeps me very busy! When I’m not looking after Oli, I like to listen to music and see live bands and read my favourite books. I can’t wait to spend the year getting to know you all. I’m sure we will have so much fun!

Meet your teacher
miss wilson
Hello everyone! I am Miss Wilson and this will be my third year at Monkwood. I have been teaching Year 3 for 4 years and love to see you grow from little Year 2s into independent Year 3s. I love to read, explore nature and watch Disney movies. I am a huge Taylor Swift fan and I got to see her in Wembley last June so there might be some random singing (sorry if you’re not a fan). I have a tortoise called Rigby and a hamster called Mavis although both of them are trouble with a capital T. I am still young at heart and love to have fun. I am sure we will have lots of great times this year and I can’t wait to meet you all in September.
Meet your teaching assistants
miss day
Hi there I am Miss Day, I have worked at Monkwood for the past 5 years; you will have seen me in Class 2 before and I will also be looking after you at dinner time in the dinner hall. I have three beautiful children who I love spending time with, especially when we go away camping. My family and I are big Rotherham United fans and I love taking my children to the games. If you have any questions please feel free to give me a shout and I can’t wait to meet you all.
Mrs Shikhova
Hello, my name is Olena Shikhova, but my students call me Miss Helen and I love it! I came from Ukraine and this is my second year at Monkwood Primary. I used to be an English teacher in Ukraine so it was easy for me to socialise here and surround myself with wonderful people. I’m into travelling, I have visited more than 10 countries and I find it fascinating as I can speak 4 languages. Believe me or not, learning languages is fun! If you want to learn other languages I will give you a helping hand in this adventure! Welcome on board, let’s make this year memorable!
mrs wright
Hello, my name is Miss Wright. I am so looking forward to helping you with your learning this year. My hobbies are crafts, sewing and any kind of creative activities. I have a son who goes to Rawmarsh Comp who is growing up way too fast. When I am not at school you will find me in my garden, sunbathing and relaxing when I can. I will do my best to help anybody so never be afraid to ask for my support.
Mrs Luty
Hi everyone, I am Mrs Luty; I will be your teaching assistant in September. I have worked at Monkwood for 15 years. I have 4 grown up children, 7 grandchildren and 2 great grandchildren. My daughter and granddaughter work at Monkwood & 3 of my grandchildren attend. I have a dog called Marley and a parrot called Rose. I can’t wait for September to be part of your class. I know we will have loads of fun and we will be the best class.
Class Information
In Year 3 we have separate cloakrooms and toilets but do not worry, We will show you around these when you come to visit and will keep reminding you in September. We still use dojos to celebrate hard work and good behaviour.
Areas of Learning
In Year 3 we learn about the Stone Age, Ancient Greeks and The Romans. We look at artists such as
Henry Moore, Doug Hyde and the fashion designer Vivienne Westwood. We learn lots of Maths and
English skills and do regular spelling tests.
