Not so serious Burns Day!

We enjoyed a fabulous Burns Day experience with the ladies and gentlemen from the Culture Quarter.  As part of the experience we got to taste haggis, join in with some Scottish dancing and singing and learn about the famous Bard and the Ulster - Scots language we still use today.

China Talk

We learned about the Chinese New Year and the different names for each year e.g. The Year of the Rat, Ox, Dog, etc.

We also had the opportunity to use Chopsticks and we all had a go in the dragon.

Today we celebrated our wonderful grandparents and grandfriends. We acted, we sang, we remembered, we said poems, cinquians and kennings.

All these things helped us to demonstrate how much we love our grandparents and grandfriends.

We have been learning about 3D shapes.

We made our own 3D Pyramids and Prisms.
