This week we have made a good start with our English and maths curriculum and have started learning about the Victorians. We had an individual lesson discussing the 9/11 disaster. Specific focus was on the first responders, who we believe were the true heroes. As a dedication to these first responders, borrowing an idea from the front cover of The New Yorker magazine, we have created a magazine cover in celebration of our personal heroes.

The children’s maturity when dealing with such sensitive topics has been extremely impressive.
