Year One have had a brilliant week starting their topic work about the Great Fire of London. They have located London today using atlases. First they found Europe, then the United Kingdom and then labelling the four different countries and their capitals! (See if they can remember the country we live in and its capital!) […]

They are also excited to […]

After much deliberation, each class teacher made the difficult decision and chose two winners who received the prize of a large chocolate egg. A big well done to all who took part. […]
