A force to be reckoned with

The second half of the Autumn term got off to an explosive start as we have discovered how plate tectonics are involved in the formation of volcanoes. In science, after briefly considering volcanoes that exist beyond the realms of Earth - including the extinct mega-shied volcano Olympus Mons on Mars - our attention has shifted from outer space to forces. 

We have explored new number concepts including square numbers, cube numbers and prime numbers in our unit of work on multiplication and division, whilst in English we have petitioned Sir Ernest Shackleton to join him as crew members on his 1914 Trans-Antarctica Expedition. If you need a cook, photographer, champion swimmer, navigator, dog handler or able seaman, then you need look no further!
