Miss Baker, Mrs Martin and Mrs Hawkes  

Myself, Mrs Hawkes and Mr Boughton would like to take the time to say welcome back. We all hope you had a wonderful Christmas. 

In English this term we are writing to entertain with our core texts 'The Great Kapok Tree', 'The Explorer' and 'There's a rang-tang in my bedroom'. 

In History we are going to be completing a local history study. Investigating the historical significance of Hythe. 

In Geography we are going to be investigating the question 'Why are deserts so dry and jungles so wet?' linking to our topic of rainforests. Studying the equator, tropic of Cancer, tropic of Capricorn and researching the rainforests of the world. 

Our science topic this term is plants before moving onto animals including humans. 

Our PE day is Wednesday - Please could children come to school wearing PE kit.
