Bronze, Stone and Iron Age

We will learn all about the Stone Age, a period of history when man was developing his social relationships, farming and expressive arts. The three types of rocks are studied in depth in science and we learn how each of igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary are formed. Children are excited to learn how fossils are formed and about Mary Anning’s discoveries and her journey to becoming the first female palaeontologist.

Quality Text: Night of the Gargoyles

We read ‘Night of the Gargolyes’ as our quality text in which the Gargoyles come to life at night. Children have an opportunity to imagine a scenario where another museum exhibit comes to life and the mischief that they could get up to!
