Kangaroos
Teacher: Miss Thomas
Welcome to the Kangaroos Class!
Year 5 is action packed with the trips coming thick and fast in the first term. We will be visiting our local area, looking at the impact of the Clark’s family and completing some geographical fieldwork. We are then off to Wells Cathedral for Luke Jerram’s Gaia Exhibition. Then it’s down to work, studying North America, The Universe, and the Vikings, to name but a few. We will complete our Vikings unit by taking part in a re-enactment day, where we will put our artefacts and weapons (that we have made) to good use.
