Human Rights Day - Article 2
Article 2 – All children have these rights, no matter who they are or what they look like.
We listened to the story ‘It’s ok to be different’, and discussed why it is ok to be different. Here are some of the children’s contributions;
“We have different colour skin and that is ok.”
“You might want to speak in a different language.”
“It doesn’t matter where you live. You can live in different places and still be friends.”
“My mummy has curly hair and I don’t, and that is ok.”
“Teasing is not kind, because children will feel sad if you tease them.”
“My mummy is different to me because she has dark hair and I have light hair.”
After our discussion, we played a game of ‘switch places if you ……’ where the children swapped places with another child if they answered yes to the question/statement.
Well-being day!!
Years 2, 3 and 4 enjoyed a variety of activities to celebrate a well deserved well-being day! This included having a go at some blind football and blind obstacle course, and learning how to play some new games using unfamiliar technology.
Well-being Day
For well-being day, children in years 2,3, and 4 took their pens for a walk full of mindfulness.
Pyjama Drama
Thank you to Louise from Pyjama Drama. We had a fantastic time using our drama skills to pretend Pinocchio went on a plane to Spain where he had a fantastic camping holiday, swam in the sea, went to a park and had a train ride. We role-played that we were Pinocchio in the ending of our story.
Pyjama Drama
Today, we were joined by Louise from Pyjama Drama. Louise worked with us to create a story about a family visiting a theme park and going on a rollercoaster ride. Here are some pictures of us acting out our story in our groups.
Tree Identification
As part of our outdoor learning, we looked at what trees we have on our school grounds!
School Nurse Visit-Washing our Hands
Today the school nurse taught us a song to help us wash our hands and get rid of germs. She brought in a special machine that showed up all the germs. She read us a story and checked that our hands were germ free. Bendigedig pawb!
The importance of handwashing by the School Nurse
We had Sara, the school nurse join us this afternoon to teach us the importance of washing our hands. We learned a song and tested our hands under a special light to see if we had any germs on them. After this, we used the song we had learned from Sara to wash our hands properly and tested them again under the special light. We were all amazed at how well we washed our hands as most of the germs had disappeared.
