It has been a glorious week in the sunshine this week and we have been trying to make the most of it, doing some outdoor PE, learning all about helping those who are hard of seeing to navigate their way around. We also had some outdoor maths, running around looking for bargains to build a family meal on a budget; pupils will hopefully have a lot more sympathy for parents doing the food shop now!
We have also been doing more work on our inclusion topic which led us to some great discussions about not judging a book by its cover and not worrying about what someone looks like as the person is very different to their looks, especially a young Barack Obama who many mistook for Bruno Mars!
We have been continuing our Islam topic in RME, this week learning about Ramadan, what it is, what happens and the importance of Ramadan which will continue to be explored in the coming weeks. It has been a fascinating and very engaging topic and it is clear to see that the pupils are enjoying it and they are treating the discussions with a great deal of respect.
We hope everyone has relaxing and well-earned fun over the long weekend, enjoy the sun!
