Year 3 were overjoyed to take their Lion masks home recently! As part of the Come fly with me Africa topic we learned lots of information about food chains, the lion’s teeth and animation with ‘The Lion King’. In DT we designed and made our own lion mask using papier-mâché!
Children from KS1 and KS2 took a wintry Christmas walk to St Nicholas’ Church this morning. Once there, the children sung some of their favourite Christmas songs in this beautiful environment and talked with Rev. Paul about how Christians celebrate Christmas.
Rev. Paul was very impressed with some of the questions relating to the church itself.
All of the children were so impeccably behaved and are a real credit to our school!
Thank you Rev Paul.
Year 3 had an exciting afternoon trying lots of different Greek foods. As part of our Dimensions topic- Athens v Sparta, we have been learning about Greece. The children have learnt about the history of Greece, food and culture. We thought it was only right to try some of these foods. So we had an enjoyable afternoon trying the different delicacies! We tried: olives, Greek yoghurt, Vine leaves, baklava, feta cheese, pita bread with tzatziki and hummus.
KS2 children had a fantastic experience of an African dance workshop on Tuesday. It was a fun, engaging and memorable essential learning experience that allowed the children to have a broad understanding of cultural diversity.
The workshops were delivered by the fantastic Tunde Olasupo, who taught them some of the different traditional African dance moves native to this wonderfully vibrant and diverse culture.
