Park Mead

On World Book Day we love to celebrate authors and illustrators. We read Mr Gum by Andy Stanton and watched a clip with David Tazzyman who is the book illustrator. Everybody had a go at drawing Mr Gum using the lesson from the illustrator. Really pleasing results! @gumdraw

The children loved listening to the Last Wild and creating blackout poetry from the words. Thank you @PiersTorday for such an immersive book. #WorldBookDay2023

Year 6 have been chatting to America and Australia today to understand and ask questions about time difference. They learnt how in today's world we have to consider what time it is around the world. #mathsweek2022 #MathsWeekEngland
