In English today, we read the setting description at the start of our new English book, The Storm. We went on a mysterious walk through the wildlife area. We imagined that we were Annie, the main character walking along the marsh near her home. We took a lamp to light the way and really tried to imagine how Annie must have felt, walking alone in the misty weather. When we returned to the classroom, a mystery bag had appeared with some interesting objects inside!

Trip to Saltaire

Roald Dahl Class had a brilliant trip to Saltaire on Tuesday afternoon. After learning all about Saltaire in the morning with Maria Glot, we couldn't wait to explore the village. We managed to find some of the houses that the people on our bookmarks lived. We also enjoyed a quick visit to Robert's Park!

Special visit from Maria Glot

On Tuesday morning Roald Dahl class and Anne Fine Class had a special visit from a local historian, Maria Glot. She told us all about Bradford and the building of Saltaire during the Industrial Revolution. We learnt lots of interesting information. We were also given bookmarks telling us about a person who lived and worked in Saltaire in those times, where they lived and what job they did. We used these during our trip to Saltaire in the afternoon.
