Class 4 mountain topic ‘fantastic finish’
A pair of trousers (joggers/leggings) and warm layers on top will be fine. Perhaps a hat & gloves too. Sturdy boots can be worn, if they have them, otherwise any flat shoes or trainers.
Please do not buy anything new! It’s just a bit of fun to finish our topic off.
We will watch Planet Earth – mountains and I will also bring some of Mr Buttery’s favourite mountain snack – flapjack – for the children to enjoy. Please let me know if, for allergy reasons, your child cannot have flapjack. The children have worked so hard this half term and I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching them about mountains.
Many thanks for your continued support at home.Mrs Ingle
