Godrevy
Welcome to Godrevy
Miss Shaw, Mrs Sicolo, Mis Drelinga and Mr Buckley welcome you to Godrevy Class -Year 3 and 4
Food! Glorious Food!
What does food mean to different people? This is the question we're hoping to explore this term.
We are very excited about exploring different cultures from around the world. Each week we will be researching a different country and cooking some traditional dishes from that country. We have designed our classroom around our theme, we have a giant pizza oven, a cafe with a bistro area, a kitchen worktop and our very own orchard. Have a look at us learning in our brilliant new environment!
Don’t forget to check our class page to see updates of our learning.
If you have any questions about our class please feel free to arrange to speak to Miss Shaw.
Godrevy class is an environment where all children are encouraged to learn through exciting topics.
