Autumn Term 2025  

Our topic this term is Time Traveller. 

We will be travelling back in time this term to learn about The Tudors. To begin our topic the children were asked what they already knew and what they wanted to find out about The Tudors. To begin with we will be travelling back to where it all began with the War of the Roses.  

Reading / Darllen   

Children must bring their reading book in every day, and this includes their reading record. Please make sure you fill in their reading record at least once a week.   

Homework/ Gwaith Cartref   

Homework will be sent home on a Monday, to be returned for the following Monday. Each week it will alternate between Maths and Literacy activities. This allows parents/guardians to see what your child has been covering within school and an opportunity to reinforce their learning at home.   

The children’s spellings will be sent home on seesaw each Monday to practice at home ready to be tested on Friday morning.   

Literacy/ Llenyddiaeth   

This term in Year 5 and 6 we are reading the book, ‘Treason,’ by Berlie Doherty and in Year 3 and 4, ‘The Queens Token,’ by Pamela Oldfield. The children will be creating fact files about an author, summarising information and writing a playscript.

Maths / Mathemateg   

This term is all about number. We are learning the place value of numbers including counting forwards and backwards in different intervals and also the four operations of number.

Forest Schools / Ysgolion Goedwig   

Forest school is on Thursdays. Please ensure you send your child in appropriate clothing. This means NO Shorts as we often kneel by the fire and in the bushes. Remember Forest School can be messy – wear old clothes!    

Physical Education / Addysg Gorfforol   

PE is on a Friday ; the children can come to school in their P.E. kits. Our focus this term is a range of invasion sports ready for our competitions coming up.

Daily Mile / Milltir Y Dydd   

Everyday weather permitting your child will be involved in a brisk walk/jog/run around the school. We have found that this contributes to improved alertness and mood, and they are ready to learn when they return to the classroom.   

We are looking forward to another fantastic year!
