Welcome back to another exciting term! This term we are learning about our local area and the history of buildings that surround us. Please look at the enquiry mat for the key vocabulary we will be using and the key information that you could discuss with your child.

Our term 5 newsletter is also here to give you more detail about what we are learning this term but also key information about parent events, PE days and what the children need through out the term.
