Maple Class 
Welcome to Maple Class!

Welcome to Maple Class, home to Years 3 and 4 at Wickhambreaux.
Just as maple trees change beautifully with the seasons, we encourage the children to embrace change, lead by example, and learn from their mistakes. Our class saying, "Making mistakes is how we learn!", reflects our belief in growing stronger and more vibrant with each new challenge.
Mr Kent, Mrs Dawson and Mrs Breeze aim to make learning fun, accessible and memorable. We hope your child enjoys the new challenges and approaches to learning that Key Stage 2 has to offer.
On this page you will find links to useful documents and resources that will give you an insight into the Lower Key Stage 2 curriculum. The unit overviews give a summary of the units of work that we cover over the year. You can also read our latest class news and see photos of what we've been getting up to.
Latest Class News (updated 19/7/25)
It’s been a reflective and fun final full week in Maple Class.
We enjoyed watching Oak Class’ brilliant performance of The Wizard of Oz – well done to all involved! In maths, we played strategy games like Got It!, Nim-7 and Daisy, thinking carefully about planning ahead and spotting winning moves. This led to rich discussions about possible ways to guarantee a win.
In English, we wrote our own school reports, reflecting thoughtfully on our achievements this year and setting goals for the future. We hope parents found the real reports helpful too!
In RE, we learnt about some different Hindu deities and their stories. We also had great fun in history making edible Roman roads using biscuits and custard to represent the layers.
Just two more days to go before the holidays!
