Autumn Term

Welcome back to the second half of Autumn Term at Manor Park School. We really enjoyed sharing the photos the children brought in for our Ready Steady Grow project in the first half of the term and they are now all dislayed on the corridor wall.

We are continuing the term with lots of celebrations of Bonfire Night, Diwali and Remberence Day. After this as we moved towards December we will be exploring Stick Man by Julia Donaldson before moving on to lots of Christmas actvities and stories.

Our 'Pathways' book for our English lessons will be 'I Want To Eat This Eat' by Chris Naylor-Ballesteros.

Please use the links below to support your child at home.
