Yesterday, year 1 went on a miles away Monday adventure to London, as part of their Bright Lights Big City topic.

Firstly, the children explored their sticky knowledge of human and physical features then looked at a map of London to look for the different features.

Next, they looked more closely at landmarks and their purposes, then testing their retention to match the pictures to their names and describing the purposes.

Finally, we put everything together we had learnt and wrote postcards telling our St Oswald’s teachers and friends all about what we had seen and discovered. We also chose a landmark to draw from memory and used this as the front of our postcard.
