Autumn 1 2025
What a wonderful first half term it’s been! The children have settled brilliantly into their new classes and routines, showing great enthusiasm and determination as they rise to new challenges. It’s been lovely to see their confidence and curiosity grow over the past few weeks.
In our learning, we’ve explored Plants and the Stone Age, discovering how people lived long ago and how the natural world around us supports life today. In English, the children have been working hard on sentence construction, building their writing skills by deepening their understanding of subjects and verbs. In maths, we’ve been focusing on place value, addition, and subtraction, developing a strong foundation for the year ahead.
We’ve also enjoyed some exciting enrichment activities this term! Year 3 took part in a lively folk music workshop, learning new rhythms and songs, while Year 4 had a fantastic visit to Wagamama, where they made their own smoothies and lunches while learning about seasonal foods and healthy eating.
As we look ahead to next half term, we’re excited to begin new topics — we’ll be learning all about the United Kingdom in Geography and exploring Electricity in Science.
