THE
Blue and white! Learning launch
SCOTTISH DAY In a whirlwind of blue and white, Year 2 students at Abbey delved headfirst into Scottish traditions on their recent Scottish Day. These eager learners were transported to the land of bagpipes and tartan as they engaged in a variety of exciting activities. They enthusiastically participated in Highland games, crafting delectable shortbread and exploring the vibrant world of Scottish art. With kilts swaying and laughter echoing, these young scholars embraced the rich heritage of Scotland, kicking off this term’s learning in Year 2. WHITES GO GREEN(PEACE) Barney and Xander White decided to use their bikes for a good cause. They love cycling and think that looking after the environment is really important, so they set themselves a goal of riding 100 miles to raise money for Greenpeace. At the start of the holidays, Simeon couldn't ride a pedal bike, so he supported them on his balance bike, but he wanted to join in the challenge so much that he set to and learnt how to ride a pedal bike! Over the holiday, they smashed through their original target of 100 miles and completed over 175 miles on their pedals, raising £340 for Greenpeace in the process.
We're very proud of their efforts!
[Ed - Great work Whites - pedal power!]
