Growing and Changing
In Science and P.S.H.E. we have been learning about growing and changing. This is a really good website to help you and your child answer any questions they may have.
We went to Durham Cathedral to learn about The Northern Saints. We took part in a service of prayer to remember St Cuthbert. It was a fantastic day!
