Year 1

In English, Year 1 will be studying the books 'Beegu' by Alexis Deacon: Beegu's spacecraft is stranded on Earth. Now she is lost and wandering. Waiting for a rescue signal from her mother, she fails to make friends with the strange creatures she encounters. Rabbits don't seem to understand her; windblown leaves won't stay still to listen.

They will then explore the book 'Owl Babies' by Martin Wadell:  It is about three owlets that wake up one night to find their mother gone, worry about her absence, but are then elated when she inevitably returns from her night flight.
