Summer 2 - On my door step

The topic for this term is "On My Doorstep", this is a great opportunity to think about all of the amazing places that are close to home, perhaps a favourite walk, places to visit or a special place in your garden.

Week 5

This week we are thinking about visiting the seaside.  We have put together some suggestions of activities and videos to watch.  Hopefully the weather will be kind to us and you might be able to go for a visit to the beach.  If not some of the activities might be ok to try in your garden.  Enjoy 😄
