Welcome to Summer Term 2025!

This term we will be learning about the oceans and the 7 continents. We will look at their different climates and position to the equator. We will use Emily Gravet's book 'Meerkat Mail' as our starting point. Sunny the meerkat likes to travel the world to find his perfect home. We are sculpting different animal eyes from clay in DT. We will also continue our year long study of seasonal changes by observing the changes to our adopted trees during the summer months. We will be looking at the life of David Attenborough and learning about animals and their habitats.  In computing, we will be continuing our online safety lessons through Project Evolve. See below for all of our knowledge organisers.

• We will change your child's reading books every Friday. They will need to bring ALL reading books and their diary into school every day. This will allow us to read with them when we can and change their books each Friday. 
• We cannot backdate the children's reading so please ensure they have their diary every Friday so they can be given their stars towards their reading pins. 
• Please check that all the children's items of clothing are labelled.
