Identify and Diversity – Park and Lomeshaye mix it up in Year 3!

Today, our Year 3 children had some special visitors from Lomeshaye.  The Year 3 children from Lomeshaye Primary School, Nelson spent the full day at Park as part of the Building Bridges programme that several schools within the district are engaging with.  A fantastic programme embracing cross community work and learning.

Linking into one of our new Global themes, as part of our exciting new curriculum, the children spent to day completing fun activities learning about what Identity and Diversity is and how important it is, especially in modern day life.  The children read a lovely picture novel together, both sad and enthralling, precisely linked to today’s theme, luckily it had a HAPPY ending!

The children were encouraged to find new friends and find out lots of facts about their new friends.  Lots of productive and interesting conversations were had and new things learnt about different cultures from within each school.

Thank you to the children and staff at Lomeshaye, Park have thoroughly enjoyed your visit and you were a credit to your school, the children conducted themselves wonderfully!

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.
