Class 8’s American themed day

What a great day we have had today. We have had a cheerleading session, a music session using the drum sticks and baseball available during lunch time. We would like to thank the dinner staff for making such a delicious lunch too! Well done Dominik for being our lunch time winner because he had the tray with a sticker on…and on his birthday too! Well done guys!

Class 8: Religious education

The children enjoyed this week’s Hindu story of the 6 blind men and the elephant. The message of the story was that the truth can be seen in different ways because all of the blind men thought that the elephant looked differently. They had a go at the quiz and even took turns to wear a blindfold and guess what the object was that they were holding. Another fantastic discussion was had about truth and integrity. Well done class 8!

Class 8 fantastic collaboration

We introduced our new text today called Let the children March! The children were very mature about the issues in the book and we discussed segregation and civil rights in great detail. I was very impressed with them and how compassionate they were towards people who were treated differently to others. They then went into groups to answer questions about the text and discuss their thoughts on different parts. It was a great lesson!
