We have been learning about the significance of the Poppy.  The children created soldier silhouettes using sugar paper and wrote their own poems which were influenced by John McRae’s ‘Flanders Field’.

The children are reading their class novel “ Oranges in no man’s land”.  They were interested in learning more about Lebanon and created mind maps to show their learning.  They compared the lifestyle and culture of Lebanese people to their own culture through mini presentations.
