Welcome to Gorillas class! Our class team consists of Miss Grant (Class Teacher) and Mrs Cross (Classroom Support Professional).

In English this half term, we are looking at Leon and the place Between. We will be working towards writing a diary entry from the perspective of Leon and other characters. We will be revisiting our learning around using paragraphs, writing in the past tense, adverbials of time, and using expanded noun phrases to make our writing entertaining for the audience.
