Welcome back class 6!
Welcome back, we hope you all had a lovely Easter break! This term we are continuing with our topic ‘Our Changing World’. We will be investigating litter in our community and understanding what we can do to help. The pupils will be at the heart of their learning as they will be sharing their ideas with their class on the things they would like to learn. The pupils’ ideas will then be used to ensure there is full coverage of the curriculum through the six areas of learning including: Health and Wellbeing, Language, Literacy and Communication, Mathematics and Numeracy, Science and Technology, Expressive Arts and Humanities.
