Week 8
We discussed that the River of Light Festival is because of a Hindu story called Rama and Sita which we learnt about. We looked at the festival which runs from the Friday we break up for half term until the Monday when we come back to school.
We found out that good will always beat bad and that light will always beat dark.
We made tea light holders (out of clay) and decorated them too.

Week 5
We started off the week revising our place value and recognising in a 2 digit number which number stands for tens and which number stands for ones. We finished our art topic which was warm and cool colours. In Geography. we looked at Kenya as a country and compared it to the UK - recognising the similarities and differences.
