11.11.24 Remembrance Day
We learnt about what Remembrance day means and observed a two minute silence to remember all of the people that supported our country.
We took part in lots of learning opportunities and we learnt that the Poppy symbolises 'hope for a peaceful future.'
We WILL remember them always.
Year 1 have been learning about 'Mary Anning' . Mary Anning was an English fossil collector, dealer, and palaeontologist. She became known internationally for her discoveries in Jurassic marine fossil beds in the cliffs along the English Channel at Lyme Regis in the county of Dorset, Southwest England.
We created our own fossils using clay and used different media to try to replicate the Plesiosaur fossil she found in 1823.

Our learning about the Ancient Greeks was brought to life by a visiting workshop!
