Our holiday home learning for the October half term was all about getting to know London ... the city we all live in. Children had to create a well known London landmark. The children created some amazing models which included the London Eye, Canary Wharf, The Shard, The Gherkin, Tower Bridge and the Houses of Parliament.

Pen Licence Award

A pen licence is a formal acknowledgement a child receives from his or her teacher, once their handwriting is recognised to be of a good standard. Achieving a pen licence is an exciting time and grants children permission to use a pen instead of a pencil when writing in class.
