P5/4 have been investigating Chinese Opera masks as part of international week and their Mandarin studies.

P5/4 went on a great trip to the zoo before half term.

Primary 2B have enjoyed finding out about China. We wrote facts files, tasted Chinese food and created art work. We loved learning a Chinese dance and Chinese stories in drama. It was great fun!

P5 were given the STEAM challenge of making a model of a famous French landmark. They spent a lot of times in groups trying out different structures, discussing what worked best and why.

Their structure had to be able to stand on its own, it had to be made up of the same shapes as the real landmark – which was a extra challenge when they only had cubes to use.  As you can see in the photos below all groups were successful and could explain the difficulties they had to overcome while constructing their model.

P2a Dressed up in all kinds of International outfits for international week.

P4 are focussing on Sudan for International Week. They thoroughly enjoyed making Sudanese Flatbread (Gorraasa) with some of the Sudanese parents. A big Thank you to all the parents who helped and for the wonderful Sudanese lunch they provided for all the staff.
