Happy New Year! I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed your time away from school. It has been lovely to have positive comments to each other on the blog over the break, including some Year 7s!
A new year means a new topic! We will be looking at The Highwayman by Alfred Noyes, a fantastic poem about life in the 18th century.
Below is a video of the poem (in action), plus a video about the highwaymen of the time.
We are Year 6 at Tanfield Lea Community Primary School, a primary school in County Durham who want to broaden our horizons and to show the world what we have to offer. We are using this blog to explore web design, write creatively and as a wider audience for the class' talents!
We are very keen for links with other schools, both in the UK and internationally. Please contact us via the comments boxes!
Our topic for the Autumn term is the Normans, looking at the architecture, sources and impact of the Norman Conquest of Britain.
