Seahorses Class
Hello and welcome to the Seahorses homepage!
Our class teacher is Mrs Wood and our lovely teaching assistant is Miss Pritchard.
In Seahorses, independence and understanding go hand in hand – we embrace mistakes and really begin to learn from them as “the expert in anything was once a beginner”. The children are encouraged to find themselves, their creativity and their love for learning.
The aim of our page is to give you an insight into what we are learning about in class each theme along with suggestions of how you can support your child at home. You will be able to access information regarding; weekly homework and topics we are studying in class at the moment.
I hope you find this information useful, if you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask a member of the Seahorses team or email Mrs Wood at [email protected]
Autumn 2 Term 2026's Focus
This term, our focus in History is to learn all about the continents, seas and oceans and answer the big question:
Was Guy Fawkes a Hero of a Villain?
We will learn about the reasons that the Gunpowder Plot happened, who the conspirators were and why they conspired against King James I and member of the parliament. The children will specifically look into the key events of how the monarchy and religion were entwined with their decision making and come to a conclusion on whether Guy Fawkes was a hero or a villain.
This term in Science we are investigating materials and their properties. We will observe, record and measure data to understand how their properties determine their uses and begin to use scientific terms to describe every day materials around us. We will then use this knowledge in our following term to support us in textiles during D&T!
In D&T, we will be practicing different sewing techniques and what technique is best suited to our product.
In Music, we will be learn about the difference between rapping and singing a song and bring these elements together to perform a Christmas song.
In Computing, we are going to improve of photography skills by capturing images and analysing the best lighting, edits and composition for our photos.
