We’ve had an brillint day at Jarrow Hall, learning all about Anglo Saxon Life. The children took part in three workshops. Learning about ‘crime and punishiment’, ‘life on the farm’ and ‘making textiles’. We also enjoyed listening to the tale of Beawulf, told around a firepit.
As part of our ‘Picture Our Planet’ theme we have been learning about the brazilian artist, Romero Britto. Inspired by his colourful work, we decided to create a textile piece of art, using the technique of layering.
To celebrate VE day, we dressed in red, white and blue and enjoyed a picnic outside.
