Class 1 Summer Term 2, 2017 Food, Glorious Food! Welcome back! I hope you have all had an enjoyable and restful half term. We are now entering the final half term of the year and are looking forward to a busy half term with lots of exciting learning opportunities. Our topic is ‘Food Glorious Food’ where the children will be learning about where our food comes from in the world and the journey it goes on to reach our plates. We are also looking forward to our Healthy Heathwood Fortnight where the children will be learning about the importance of exercise, healthy eating and looking after ourselves. Our PE days will still be Monday and Thursday so the children will need shorts, t-shirts and appropriate PE shoes in school on these days. Our book change days are now Monday, Wednesday and Friday So please ensure reading books are in school ready to be changed. I would like to take this opportunity to remind you that if you read at home with your child please note and sign their diary on the appropriate day. As always thank you for your continued support. Miss Candler Summer Term 2, 2017 Food, Glorious Food!
