The children have been learning some of the outdoor games Victorian children would have played.
Our new topic this term is called Our Heritage 200. We will be learning about Braco and Greenloaning over the past 200 years.
As part of our celebrations, a performance will be held in the Lodge Park at the end of March. Aileen Ogilvie came to help us plan out what we would be doing and she was also joined by Dave Macfarlane, who will help us create music for this performance.
We sang our little hearts out today at the Perth Concert Hall. We learnt the songs of the Sound of Music then had lunch at the Inch.
In the afternoon we watched a short performance by the Expressive Arts specialists and joined in with all the songs.
Well done all the girls who came in beautiful dresses and Noah in his Lederhosen!
We were learning the song and game Oranges and Lemons today,
We had good fun playing it out in the playground.
This was a song and game very popular in Victorian times (and even when Mrs Champion was a girl!)
The children particularly liked the gruesome part of avoiding the chopper!
Today P2/3 went over to Blackford Primary School to take part in the Awongalema Tree activities provided by the Art, Drama and Music specialists.
They heard the story of the Awongalema Tree. They had to draw and paint a beautiful, colourful tree. They also learned to play different percussion instruments to different parts of the story. The children also performed in the final performance of the story with singing dancing and playing the instruments.
Everybody came away with a smile on their face!
A big thank you to the specialists and Blackford Primary for letting us use their school.
