Autumn Term 2 2026: Who Let the Gods Out?
This half term, our topic is Who Let the Gods Out? We will explore the world of Ancient Greek gods, goddesses and beliefs while reading Marcy and the Riddle of the Sphinx, which links closely to our learning. In Science, we will investigate light, how it travels and how shadows change. In Art, we will develop our sketching techniques by drawing 3D structures, including a Greek temple. This promises to be an exciting, creative and engaging half term full of new discoveries and opportunities to learn.
Overview for the Term
Term 2: The Beast of Olympus by Lucy Coats
A boy is reunited with his long-lost father, the Greek god Pan, only to find himself taken to the kingdom of the gods.
What begins as just another ordinary day for Demon ends up being far from normal . . . because travelling on a rainbow to Mount Olympus is a bit odd for anyone, even if your dad is the Greek god Pan! When he arrives, Demon is in for a shock. The stables are full of mythical beasts like the flatulent Cattle of the Sun and a very grumpy Griffin. All Demon’s animal husbandry skills, polished on his mother’s farm on Earth, are going to be put to a rather exacting test as he tries to sort out the chaos and deal with the upset and concern of the gods. Can the stableboy help the Nemean lion that Heracles has hurt, and avoid incurring Hera’s wrath if he can’t heal her pet Hydra . . .
