Our Curriculum:
Humanities:
This terms topic is:
Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner!
we’ll journey through time to explore how London has transformed into the incredible city it is today. From the bustling River Thames, which has shaped the city's history and geography, to the vital role of Parliament in leading the nation, we’ll discover what makes London tick. Along the way, we’ll sharpen our atlas skills to uncover fascinating maps and learn how geography helps us understand the city’s changes. It’s the perfect adventure for curious minds – and parents, you might learn something new too!

Science:
This terms topic is:
Sound!
Get ready to make some noise (and learn all about it)! In our sound lessons, we’ll be exploring what causes sounds, how our amazing ears help us hear, and why it’s so important to look after them. The children will also have fun investigating pitch – why some sounds are high and others are low – and testing materials to see which ones are best at keeping sound out. It’s going to be a hands-on, ear-opening adventure into the wonderful world of sound!
Remember to regularly visit our school library, and enjoy the wide variety of books it has on offer.
Pick a reading book to read in school and at home.
Have you tried the Mundy Reading Challenge yet? Ask in the school Library for more information.
We will be choosing a wide range of class reading books this year.
We are currently reading:
