We cannot wait to begin our new topic - Fun Food Factory. Within this DT and Art topic the children will be investigating pizzas, thinking about taste, appearance and how healthy the pizza is. They will then go on to taste test the different elements of pizzas to find out what they like and don't like before designing their very own healthy pizza. 

Throughout this term, the children will be learning about where their food comes from, making geographical links and exploring packaging. We will trace the journey of our fruit from seed to supermarket and discuss locality. They will also think about the different parts of a plant that we eat from root vegetables, leaves and fruit grown on bushes and trees. The children will consider the importance of balance in their diet and how different food groups support their growing bodies. 

In RE we will be looking at sacred books from different religions.

A tasty term awaits!

We take part in the Derby Book Festival's Children's Picture Book Award each Spring and we love receiveing three new shortlisted books to share in class. We will enjoy voting for our favourite alongside other local children. In 2025, we read The Girl at the Front of the Class, Flower Block and If I were Prime Minister.
