A Premature Chinese New Year in Year 6!

Yesterday, the Year 6 children spent the full day learning all about the Chinese New Year which begins on the 1st of February and this year it is the Year of the Tiger. The immersion days links to our Global Theme for the half term (Identity and Diversity).

The children story mapped and then retold the traditional story of the Chinese Zodiac, they then completed a mystery quiz (linked to maths) on the topic and finally completed a D&T project creating a pop up card with their typed up stories within.

As you will see from the photos, the children thoroughly enjoyed the day and will completed their D&T project this afternoon.

The cap all this off, their are some special people visiting the school on the 9th and 10th of February for the full day to complete a Chinese Zodiac workshop, every class will receive a 35/40 timeslot to learn and perform a dance routine linked to the Chinese New Year!

Hi, my name is Mr Farry, I still consider myself very much part of a great team in a great school, we really do ALL pull together to ensure the children complete a fantastic and enjoyable curriculum. I am still the P.E coordinator (a veteran now that I’ve joined the over 40s club), and still completely passionate about sport and my role in sport at Park. I am still actively involved external sports (both team and individual) and consider this essentially to maintaining a healthy body and mind. The children will tell you I’m still the jovial and humorous person I was when I joined the school, buy I’m simply four/five years older and ‘hopefully’ a little wiser, albeit with a few stray greys! My classroom is a busy place, with high expectations whilst still maintaining a nurturing environment, especially with the kind and generous Mrs Lucas by my side. The children, thus, continue to feel comfortable and content in their learning environment.
