The Last Garden

We worked with Peter and Sharon to create another story based on ‘The Last Garden’. The story was based in Bosnia in 1996 and told the story of a girl that had to leave her home and her beautiful garden. We travelled back in time and met Slev who had taken refuge in the garden. He had no home and was looking after lots of children that had lost their families. They also met Zara’s mum (a character from the story ) who had returned back to her home after many years away from the garden. The children had the opportunity to hot seat her and ask her questions about her life and what it was like being a refugee.

The children decided that they would like to help Slev, Zara and her mum rebuild the garden. So they went back to the future and gathered resources that they would need to grow the garden again. When they returned to the garden and rebuilt it, they welcomed Zara back and they all had a party.

Cross Country!

Some of the children in Years 3,4,5&6 went to a cross country competition at Bedstone. The children showed great determination as the course was tough but came away with some great results. Da Iawn!

Safer Internet Day 2023

Following the reading of ‘Hanni’s Magic Window’ we played a board game that reinforced who to and how to ask for help. We also used the ‘Like Ladder’ to order the online activities from our favourite to least favourite.

Lunchtime activities.

Some of the year 5 and 6 children have been making the most of the nice weather and have been helping to dig steps out on the field.

Life in 1940s!!!

We had a special visit from Julie and Laura from Knighton Museum. They bought a variety of artefacts from the 1940’s for the children to look at. The children had great fun, and it reminded them of what life used to be like years ago.
