We are starting a new geography topic called 'Are we there yet?'. This week we explore vehicles through play.   We will challenge the children to name/sign the vehicles, while introducing relevant vocabulary to label and describe.  

PE
Just a reminder that we have PE every Tuesday. As the weather warms up we may take our PE sessions outdoors so please provide a pair of joggers and appropriate footwear.


We are looking forward to welcoming you all back tomorrow.
