In Geography, St Clare class is learning about South America. This week the children have been researching and writing about The Amazon rainforest and river. This is building on our knowledge of the different countries in South America. Did you know for example that the Amazon Rainforest covers nine countries and territories in South America? The Amazon is thought to be home to 10% of the known species on Earth. The work the children are producing is also highlighting some of the important things about the rainforest.
