History
Did the events at the end of ‘The Great War’ cause World War Two?
Building upon our learning on The Great War, we have examined the treaty of Versailles and the impact this had on the people of Germany. Our learning will focus on the global events of The Second World War – such as the horrors The Holocaust – as well as Lincolnshire (or bomber county)’s role in the war. We will be plotting where the bombs fell in Boston and using stories to learn about life in Boston in the 1940s.
Religious Education (RE)

Personal, Social and Health Education (PSHE)
Which is more important: mental or physical health?
Change, grief and loss: this term we are examining and delving into some painful emotions and how we can self-regulate when we feel anxious or upset. These lessons are an important self-reflection on how each of us must nurture our mental health – however old we become – and it will give us each a tool kit on how to deal with uncomfortable thoughts and challenging emotions.
Art

Henry Moore – well known for his sculptures – was asked to document the events of the Blitz in London while people to shelter in the underground stations during air raids. His drawings were mainly made through using wax-resist and water colour – we shall be evaluating his work before moving on to creating works of our own…
Music
Do time signatures feel different?
This term we are beginning our long-awaited journey in playing the recorder. We are beginning with the basics of fingering notes to produce a pure sound before we pursue reading and playing simple and well-known tunes.
