This project teaches children about the history of ancient China, focusing primarily on the Shang Dynasty, and explores the lasting legacy of the first five Chinese dynasties, some of which can still be seen in the world today.
This project teaches children about the forces of gravity, air resistance, water resistance and friction, with children exploring their effects. They learn about mechanisms, their uses and how they allow a smaller effort to have a greater effect.
P.E.
This term, Chestnut will be having P.E. lessons on Mondays and Fridays.
Children will need to come to school in their P.E. kits on these days.
P.E. Kit should consist of a white polo shirt or white t-shirt, jogging bottoms (black or navy blue) and a sweater (black or navy blue). Hoodies and leggings shouldn't be worn as part of the school P.E. kit.
Please could any jewelry, including earrings, be left at home or children are prepared to remove them for the hour we have P.E.
Swimming
