Hi everyone,
A fantastic topic focused week. We were looking forward to the local history trip to Armley Mills and our visit certainly did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed being transported to the Victorian era in the roles of a Victorian school child and mill worker. The children learned what it was like to learn in a Victorian classroom and the extremely difficult life of a child working in the mills. I'll let some photos of the day tell the whole story...
Enjoy the weekend

Hi,
Our first full week as Maple Tree Class has been very productive. The children have displayed an amazing attitude when completing assessments and have really enjoyed learning more about the Victorian era. Our focus this week has been researching the life of Thomas Barnardo in preparation for writing his biography. We have also compared maps of Yeadon from Victorian times to the modern day. Everyone is excited about our trip to Armley Mills next week.
It was lovely to meet so many parents this week and share what a great start to the year Maple Tree Class have made.
Have a lovely weekend.

Hello!
What a fantastic start to the year! It has been lovely getting to know the children this week. They have settled well and I have been extremely impressed with their positive attitude and the quality of work they have produced so far.
We are also very excited to share that we have been able to organise a visit to Armley Mills this half term to support us with our new topic about the Victorian era. The children will complete two workshops to find out what life would have been like in a Victorian schoolroom and mill. More information regarding the trip will be shared ASAP.
I am also looking forward to meeting parents/carers next week.
Looking forward to a fantastic year in Maple Tree Class
Mrs Trotter
