From week 2 we will be taking part in the Firewise programme - we will learn what it means to be firewise and will even have a visit from some real-life firefighters. Then we will be learning all about animals - looking at what animals need to survive and building our own enclosures. We will be ending this unit with a trip to the zoo in week 7.

Friendship helpers

We are lucky to have our very own friendship helpers group in Room 25. This group of 4 girls have a big job to do! They have to create posters in class to show us how to be good friends, they have to have meetings to discuss how to keep their own friendships running smoothly, and they even have to sort out friendship problems in the class. If we want help from the friendship helpers, we can write to them, leave the letter in the mailbox, and they will help us to sort it out at lunchtime.
