English has been all about Stormbreaker! We wrote a diary entry, imagining that we were Alex writing about the events of his day. The start of the book has been very exciting but we cannot tell you too much as we do not want to ruin the story!

In history, we have been learning about the Benin Empire, which lasted for almost 2000 years. We have learnt about the first dynasty and the rulers of Benin. In the first lesson, we looked at some artefacts and tried to work out how they may have been used. It was amazing to see some figures and plaques from Benin.
