What a creative bunch we are!

We are definitely a creative class - we performed our class assembly to an enthusiastic audience and also enjoyed creative activities throughout our Arts Week.

Well done to RF for performing one of our favourite stories, Farmer Duck, and thank you to all the parents who came along to see our actors and singers. I'm sure you'll agree the children's enthusiasm for our topic shone through as they were acting and singing.











We had a great Arts Week. Our week began with an African storyteller. She taught us some greetings in Swahili and allowed every one of us to play the drum (even me!). Throughout the rest of the week we have been singing, dancing, storytelling, acting, decorating cakes and painting. As we have been learning about symmetry we painted some beautiful butterflies. We used silk instead of paper and found out how the paint reacted on the cloth. Our butterflies look colourful and pretty, hanging in our classroom.



We also had a visit from children who are qualifying for Arts Award at their secondary school. We had a singing session, where we practised singing clearly by singing 'red lorry, yellow lorry' - very hard to sing fast without laughing. Finally, we learned a new song and dance.



A great end to the week.
