Kathryn’s Class

This half term in Kathryn’s class we have been exploring the theme of ‘people who help us’ in PSHE. We have thought about different job roles, actions and associated items for each one. Cleveland Fire Brigade gave us a tour of their fire engine; it was so exciting! We role played as the people who help us and even baked our own cookies. Exploring job roles is part of the Gatsby Benchmarks – at Discovery we aim high for our futures!
