‘Adventures in learning’
Year 3 Whitby have had a great immersion week. They have enjoyed planting and making our Faith garden look beautiful for our School Community.
They carried out some local community work too! Picking up the litter in the local area to make it Litter Free!
'How can we love our world better?'
Roche and Selby explored The Great Barrier Reef using David Attenborough's interactive website, created and played in their own great barrier reef in continuous provision, read books and sang songs about the ocean, carried out independant research and consolidated this with a Kahoot! Everyone loved the Cinema afternoon watching Finding Nemo in the hall!
'How can we save our planet?'
During our immersion week Fountains have been exploring the life of Greta Thunberg in order to write a biography about her life. During an interview for News Round, Greta said “There are always things you can do in your everyday life to get involved and take action for the climate and for the environment, for example you can start to pick up litter outside.” Inspired by Greta Thunberg, we went out with our litter pickers and started to take action!
'How can we love our world better?'
Kirkstall have been delving deep into the rainforest as part of immersion week for our new 'Adventures in Learning' topic - OUR WORLD: How can we love it better?
The children have been exploring on a virtual tour of The Eden Project in Cornwall and even creating their own rainforest reading area, complete with its own rainforest soundtrack!
'How can we save our planet?'
Fountains have had a great immersion week so far as they embarked on their learning expedition! They are exploring ' How can we save our planet?'.
We have started by updating our Faith Garden as we begin our 'Animals and living things' topic in Science. The children have loved becoming gardeners, clearing and planting in our reflective area.
‘Adventures in learning’
This term we are going on expeditions to find out answers to our guiding questions as we explore the overarching theme of Our World: how can we love it better?
