The Week Ahead

23 January 2026 (by Sarah Roberts (sroberts))

Geography Topic

Children have been well and truly inspired by our topic work this week. We have been finding out about climate change, over-fishing, plastic pollution and coral bleaching and the devastating effects these have on marine wildlife and our ecosystem.

In English, they wrote persuasive speeches – explaining the issues and urging people to look after our oceans. They really were quite moving.
