Geography

Read and watch the information about the Galapagos Islands. Either make an information leaflet about them, or research some of the animals that live there, and present your information to your family.

Have a great day!

Good morning Year 6, It feels like it's been a very long time since we've seen you now, and we miss you all very much. We're looking forward to hearing all about what you've been doing when we speak to you this week! Thank you so much if you've posted a comment on the blog - we have replied to every comment that we've seen.

Have a lovely weekend, Ms Tupman and M
