Our class novel

Thursday 08 May 2025

We are really getting into the class novel this half term – Letters from the lighthouse. The author is Emma Carroll who we know from earlier in the year when we read Secrets of the Sun King. The book links directly to our learning in topic about World War II. In the book, the main characters Olive and Cliff, are young children experiencing a war situation and are evacuated to the south coast for their safety. We follow their journey and experience the fear, emotion and moments of happiness with them.
