This half term, we have explored the question ‘Are we there yet?’ We enjoyed learning about different modes of transport and had fun being creative with vehicle tyres. We read a number of books, although we mainly focused on ‘Emma Jane’s Aeroplane’ and some of the countries she visited; France and Italy. We had themed weeks where we learned lots of interesting facts, made some of the famous landmarks and tasted various foods from these countries. Throughout Advent, Reverend Jennie visited our class every week , as we explored different parts of the Christmas story including; Angels, Journeys, Stars and Gifts. To end the half term, we had lots of festive fun; making Reindeer antlers, party hats, placemats and much more.
