Smarty Arts! Active learning.
ALL ABOUT ME On Monday, EYFS celebrated their All About Me topic with a finale day. The children took part in a performing arts workshop with Smarty Arts lead by Mrs Chance. Dance, music, singing, exercise and active games were on the agenda and fun was had by all! It was great to see the children dressed up in their own clothes or fancy dress as they shared their own interests with their friends. Well done EYFS for being such active learners! Thanks to Mrs Chance for the story. SCULPT LIKE AN EGYPTIAN On Monday, Year 5 had a marvellous, once in a life time, extraordinary experience. It all started in the morning when we travelled back in time to the Ancient Egyptian days and mummified an orange! This was a very sticky process but we enjoyed it. In the afternoon, we created canopic jars for a royal pharaoh. Year 5 and their parents have made some exquisite jars which they moulded using clay. They then added details using carving tools. Some people moulded the head of a jackal; others preferred to shape the lid like Tutankhamun. Overall, this was a great day and everyone enjoyed it (especially the parents)! Thanks to Phoebe 5M, Millie 5H and Florence 5W for the story.
