Newsround

To develop children’s knowledge and understanding of the world and to help them keep up to date with important, age appropriate, world events the children watch Newsround regularly. After they have watched BBC Newsround the teacher will go through some of the new vocabulary that might have come up in that episode.  Children or teachers will locate where things are happening on the world maps that are in every classroom to develop geographical place awareness. This supports our context specific intent of tolerance and diversity. To see what our children watch visit BBC Newsround.
 

Active Mile

To improve physical and mental health benefits our children have the opportunity to run for ten minutes a few times a week. Over the year this provides children with many extra hours of aerobic exercise in addition to their twice weekly PE or swimming lesson. This supports our context specific intent of health.
 

Cooking in the Curriculum

Each term every child in the school learns to cook something that links with one of their foundation subjects.  This supports our context specific intent of health.

This is our Federation Cooking in the curriculum map.
