In literacy this week we have begun to read together the epic tale of Beowulf (in modern English prose, rather than the original ancient English poem!)
We will be using the Michael Morpurgo retelling as the basis for our work which will include some drama and freeze-frame techniques.
Beowulf is a brave warrior prince who travels across the sea to Denmark to rid the kingdom of the terrible monster, Grendel, who has terrorised their nights for 12 years.
It is a powerful story of good and evil, retold in an action-packed, exciting way.

Hello.
We love to hear from people interested in our school, and our children want to know what you think of their work!
However, any comments will be moderated by the staff at Walkley Primary School before they are uploaded on our Blog, so it might take a little while before we publish them. Please be patient and thankyou for commenting!
