PSHE - CHANGING ME

This half term in Personal, Social and Health Education we are learning about how to cope with change. This includes learning about change in ourselves as we grow from a baby to how we are now. It also includes a lessons in which we will be noting the differences between male and female bodies, using the correct terminology. These lessons will very much lay the foundations for future Relationships and Sex Education, which is now a statutory requirement to be taught in schools. We see this as a crucial part of Safeguarding our children and keeping them safe.

PROJECT REQUEST 
In our project work we are going to be looking at the process of mummification -  Ancient Egyptian style. Please could your child bring in a tomato and a ziplock/sandwich bag? We will be mummifying the tomato and watching the stages as they happen.
