As part of our Learning Means The World Theme, ‘Powhatten People’, we found out that Pochahontas attended a masquerade ball and had to learn how to dance. This was very different from the customs she was used to in her tribe. We made our own masquerade masks and learned how to do a dance typical for that era.
Even though the weather was hot we kept our cool and completed all our races with a smile on our face! We hope you had as much fun watching us as we did taking part.
We took part in the whole school careers day. Lots of businesses and people with interesting careers came and joined us for the day. We have been learning about civil engineers and their role in building bridges, I’m sure you’ll agree our bridges were much better than any you see on your travels! We looked at the world of advertising through the use of media videos and green screen. The children enjoyed watching Mrs Chisholm discover her new career, she is obviously wasted as a Teacher and needs to be on the big screen!! We also looked at Halfords and their cars and what they do everyday. We found today very interesting and we now have lots of fun ideas and goals for our future – watch this space!

Some of year 2 were lucky enough to be invited to take part in an orienteering session at Marine Park. They received a map and had to look for different numbered stations around the park. Each of these stations had a letter, number and a picture. The children had to collect the data from each station to fill in their quiz sheet at the end. The children were all amazing and we have had a brilliant afternoon.
