Spring - Cadle Community Crew
Our Topic this term is entitled 'Cadle Community Crew'. We will be focusing on 'My school, my community, people and places, now & in the past. Cadle Primary School is 150 years old this year and Swansea has been a City for 50 years and our learning will involve looking at our school and our City over the years.
This topic and the experiences provided through our topic will provide the children with the skills and knowledge about their culture, community, society and the world now and in the past. We want our children to be ethically informed citizens who respect the needs and rights of others, as a member of a diverse society.

Our Visit to Swansea Mosque
We had a fabulous time at the Mosque and we would like to say a very big thank you to Aisha's Mum & Dad. They showed us around the mosque, it was very exciting! We looked at the prayer rooms and Aisha's Dad even showed us the special prayer book, called the Qu'ran. We found out lots of interesting facts, such as; Arabic is read from right to left and that people wash before they pray.
