We have been writing very creative poems about the journey of a river, using lots of river vocabulary (meander, source, waterfall, mouth etc) and this term we will be learning about the water cycle.

Colchester Zoo

As we are studying habitats as our topic this term we visited Colchester Zoo to learn a little more on this. It was a great opportunity for us to see the endangered animals which we have been studying up close and to see how the zoo creates enclosures to match the animals natural habitat.


In literacy we have been writing debates for or against wild animals being kept in zoos using persuasive language.


Please take a look at our trip to Colchester Zoo:
