Welcome back! This term our theme is Victorians. The children will be learning about life in different parts of the world, exploring each of the continents in turn.   

In science, they will learn about the life cycles of humans and other animals. The children will find out how humans and other animals change as they grow.  

In mathematics, the children will continue to develop their understanding of number, including the four operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. They will apply this in different contexts, including time and measures.

In English, the children will develop their knowledge of story writing, with a focus on ‘The Lost Homework’, ‘How to Wash a Woolly Mammoth’ and ‘Take One Poet’. The children will use ideas from the stories that we read to inspire their own writing. 

We have also planned for a number of transition events to support the children’s move to their next schools. Please look at our whole school calendar and newsletters for the latest information about these events. 

If you have any questions, please speak to us at the door, drop off a note or contact the school office to arrange a convenient appointment. We look forward to an enjoyable and productive half term. 

Thank you for your support.
