Autumn 2 

Our text this half term is...

Can we save the tiger? by Martin Jenkins

Tigers are big, beautiful and fierce. But, like many other animals, they are in danger of becoming extinct. With breathtaking illustrations this picture book tells us about the threats to the many endangered species on our planet and the need to prevent their extinction.

Our theme question is...

                  How can people around the world protect the future of the planet?

Useful Information

Also, please send your child in with a named water bottle, so it can be refilled during the day from our water dispensers
