Week ending 11.4.24
Posted: Apr 12, 2024 by: Zoe Watkins (ZWatkins) on: Class 3
It has been lovely to welcome you all back into school this week. You have all come in ready and raring to go with our new topics. And what a first week back it has been!
We visited Blackpool Illuminations and took a tour down the promenade. We have then been writing some lovely pieces all about the history of the illuminations. Did you know that it began when the government gave Blackpool council £5000 to try out electric street lamps in 1879. They put 8 bulbs on 60 ft poles. People came from all around to see these wonders. Then in 1912 the Blackpool illuminations began a little more like we know them today, with 10,000 lights. There are over 1 million today.
We then visited Brazil and the Carnival!
We have also spent some time orienteering, which the class (and staff) absolutely loved.
We might not manage so many trips next week, but we certainly will be playing the recorders!
Have a great weekend.
Miss Watkins and Team
