[dropshadowbox align=”none” effect=”lifted-both” width=”auto” height=”” background_color=”#ffffff” border_width=”20″ border_color=”#dddddd” ]PSHE:

This term we are thinking about changes in many ways, Watch this story Changes, Changes by Pat Hutchins. The characters in this story kept changing to meet different situations. The shapes they used were the same but could be changed to build different things. It made me think? Do we change inside by what is happening around us? How do we adapt to changes?
