Academic Year 2020/21

This term, we have been basing our English work on our class novel, Wild Boy.

Wild Boy, was abandoned as a baby and left in the workhouse. After reading about the workhouse in the story, we wanted to find out more. Independently, we carried out research and wrote an information text.

In Wild Boy, Doctor Charles Griffin was brutally murdered. We wrote newspaper reports detailing the murder and the events leading up to it.

During our French lessons, we have been learning about our school. We are now able to listen, pronounce and write new vocabulary. 

Callum wrote, I am looking for the kitchen. Here is the kitchen.

Kadie wrote, I am looking for the main entrance. Here is the main entrance.

Home learning.

Here you will find work for children to complete at home. This section will be updated weekly with a new selection of work and then the following week any answer sheets will be uploaded to allow children to self-mark.

The home learning grid is designed to give children a choice of topic-based tasks to be completed throughout the week.

If you have any questions, we are available through Facebook messenger and the school's e-mail.
