Spring Term 2021 Creative Expression Project - POLAR EXPLORATION

Art, Geography and Science Focus

Please feel free to have a look at Creative Expression Projects that children in Year 6 did at the end of last term following the work that they completed, by and large remotely, during the last lockdown.
