Year 3
Our Amazing Teaching Staff:
Look what we've been up to recently:
Last term we learned all about Town planners! We compared our local area, Castleford, to London. Furthermore, we conducted a survey to compare traffic flow in our local area to London. We also looked at the human and physical features of Airedale and Castleford and found the similarities and differences.
Look at some of our pictures...
