Swallow Class

Welcome to Term 1

We have taken the decision to change our usual class-based topics for this term and instead, in light of Coronavirus, are devoting the term to the core principles of:

Developing wellbeing – emotionally, physically and mentally

Enabling children to have time to make sense of the impact of the Coronavirus on the world around them with high quality PSHE lessons

Giving all children the opportunity to fill any gaps in core learning  from the period of time when schools were closed as well as teach the new core learning for the new year group

Enhancing creativity through high quality art activities

Each class teacher has carefully mapped individual class topics for this term which build on these themes. We aim to resume the usual wider curriculum topics in term 2
