Please click the 1/2 term curriculum tab to view the full curriculum for this term.

 

We will begin this half-term by learning about our class saint, Saint Frances of Rome, and understanding how she contributed towards spreading the word of God and how she can guide us in our lives to live like Jesus.

 We will then learn about the Creation story and how we can thank God for the extraordinary gift of life that He has given to us.

 We will then move on to develop our understanding of what stewardship means and how we can look after the world that God created for us.
