On Friday 25th September, the whole school participated in French Day.  Teachers delivered workshops on: French artists; traditional French children’s songs; French playground games; French composers; French history (Bastille day); French stories; food tasting and traditional mealtimes in France; French maths and Boules.

The children really enjoyed all the workshops on offer and some of the children said:

Alfie in 3R: “Boules is good.  I like playing games.”

Cameron in 3B: “French stories are good because I get to learn some French.  Rouge means red.”

James in 5M: “I enjoyed French outdoor games and I learnt number up to 30.”

Eidann in 6J: “Today has been full of excitement.  The hardest bit was learning the French song.”

Well done everyone!

Today Mr. Maqsood came into 6J to deliver a session on the Eid celebration, the children learned the principles of Eid, the rituals to follow and had a chance to ask many questions which Mr. Maqsood was able to answer.  

Having learnt about French Artists like Monet, Renoir and Seuret we decided to recreate some of their most famous images ourselves!

We are works of art!
