So we travel on our way to Christmas!

We are off to IWMN in our first week back, to gain a greater understanding of the impact of World War 2, and other wars during the past 100 years.

We will begin studying trade routes and the impact of fairtrade on local economies, and our role in the wider world.

We are going to the theatre to see Alice in Wonderland at the New Vic in Newcastle under Lyme with the whole school. What a great treat!

We will be learning about Peterloo and the fight for voting rights, linked to National Parliament Week, and hope to be able to meet our local MP.

In science, we will be learning about electricity, and will be applying that knowledge to developing games for our Christmas fundraising.

We are preparing a special Christmas celebration of Hosannah Rock, as part of the Wilmslow Churches' Twelve Days of Christmas, and will be learning about Christian pilgrimages and organisations in RE.

We love cooking and will be investigating, making and evaluating festive foods later in the term. Cookery Club is open for Year 6 pupils this half term, by invitation only!

PE lessons are on Monday and Friday, with dodgeball and dance this half term, and we will be running on Tuesdays, if the weather permits. Please ensure that PE kit is brought to school every Monday. You must have trainers in school now, as they will get muddy when we are running.

Homework is given out and posted on the school website every Friday, and must be completed by Wednesday of the following week. Mrs Lloyd runs an after school homework club on Thursdays, for any children needing help with any aspect of their maths.

If you have any questions, or need to discuss any issues with either of us, please let us know by email or in person at the beginning or end of the day. We are always very happy to chat with parents!

Here's to another half term of fun and learning!
