Topic Days
As part of our topics we have days where the children can more fully immerse themselves in their studies. Victorian Day, World War 2 day and 100 day are just a few of the engaging times which really helped the children understand what they are learning in deeper way.
These topics have had a great effect on children and their families:
“Second World War – enabled discussions at home, with older family members of personal experiences”
Parent of year 2 child
“My child came home with enthusiasm and taught me areas that I didn’t know about the war!”
Parent of year 5 child
“It made them more aware of the immediate surroundings and how different things were in those days”
Parent of year 4 and Reception children
“The Opera project has been very challenging and engages parents and pupils alike”
Parent of Year 1 child
“My child now independently continues to study history regarding World War 2”
Parent of children in Year 1 and Reception.
“The atmosphere in the school was so real – it remains in the memory as a very special day!”
