Year 1's final geogrpahy topic is to learn about the River Thames - celebrating what is on Meadland's doorstep. 

As part of this piece of work children wrote their own stories about the River Thames travelling from Teddington Lock (our location) upto London. See example of Year 1's story attached. 

Children also created their own journey along the River Thames, by doing very basic map work and listed London landmarks that they would see as well as creating their own Duck Tours Guide work.
