Spring 1 Big Idea – I am an Artist

Welcome back and Happy New Year!

This term, our Big Idea is I am an artist. In English, we are going to be focusing on performance Art. We will start by reading a book called Leon and the Place Between, which is about a boy who visits a magical circus. You can watch an amazing musical version of it below:
