Topic – Geography 
In Geography, we have been learning about Europe. We have identified countries and capital cities using maps and six-figure grid references. We also learnt about the Danube River and created informative leaflets, sharing key facts about its location, importance, and the countries it flows through.

PE
In PE, we have started our basketball unit. This week, the children learnt how to dribble the ball with control and then progressed to dribbling and passing accurately to a partner. The children enjoyed developing their ball-handling skills through a range of practical activities and games.
