We have been learning about earthquakes as part of our IDL Topic on Natural Disasters.
An earthquake is very scary and dangerous and it can cause people to lose their lives and some children. Earthquakes are common in Tokyo, Japan and when earthquakes hits buildings can fall down and get destroyed. Some people have to get aeroplanes to go to different countries to be safe. It is very sad and is quite hard to hear about it.

Today we held our Sponsored Dodgeball Event and what a day it has been!
We have played around 75 games of Dodgeball and all pupils have thoroughly enjoyed themselves. They have worked so well in their teams and supported each other, either playing or refereeing!
At the moment the total raised is an amazing £655! Well done to everyone who has collected sponsors and if there are any other donations outstanding please could they be handed in by Monday.
Thanks
Miss Atkins

This linked to our right of the month (Article 10/22 – Contact with Parents and Refugee Children). She was joined by Sarab and her son Naeem, who are refugees from Syria. Their stories were very thought proving and helps us understand what it’s like to be a refugee. A huge thank you to Louise, Sarab and Naeem for taking the time to visit us this morning and share their stories.
