Japan week
The children in school this week, enjoyed a very different timetable, learning all about Japan. From using an atlas to find out where in the world Japan is located to making a traditional Koi carp windsock, lots of fun was had by all! Anime and Manga style drawing were enjoyed by many and we were impressed with the children’s quick grasp of Haikus.
The week finished with a special outdoor activity morning where they were able to run, climb and jump on the ‘Let’s Leap’ mega inflatable! You can read all about that, here.
