Year 2 Olympic Diversity Week
We celebrated the Olympics by taking part in the Olympic sports and dressing up as famous Olympic athletes.
We had lots of fun creating our own Olympic torches, we even managed to see and touch a real Olympic torch for the London 2012 Olympics.
We also made medals out of salt dough and painted them gold, silver or bronze.
To celebrate diversity and Tokyo we made their symbolic cherry blossom trees and learned the Japanese numerals, ichi, ni, sah...

Year 3 Olympic Week
This week in Year 3 we have looked at Ancient Greece and how the Olympics first started we have then compared this to the Olympics we know and love today. The children had fun creating their own mascots, sports kits, Olympic torches and Flags that would represent Wrotham Road Primary in the Olympics. The children have also written diary entries as an Olympic athlete who won gold, made top trump cards about different Paralympian's and enjoyed learning to play volleyball sitting down.

Today year 4 have been learning about the Paralympics. We watched a clip of Sitting Volleyball at the 2016 Rio Paralympic Games and then had a go ourselves. It was much harder than the Paralympian's make it look!

Year 4 Olympic Diversity Week
An exciting Show and Tell in Year 4 today! Miss Reeves brought in the Olympic Torch that one of her family members carried through Kent during the London 2012 Olympics. Children learnt about the importance of the torch and it's journey from Olympia to London. They even had a chance to lift the torch, it was pretty heavy!
Year 1 Diversity Week
Year 1 thoroughly enjoyed learning about Japan, including their sporting history and culture. They were fantastic when using their chopsticks and even chose to use them to eat their lunches! The children then created Japanese cherry blossom using watercolour paints.

Year 5 Olympic Diversity Week
Today we have been researching our ‘home’ countries and looking at the different nationalities within the class. We thought about which other teams we might support and found one of their ‘promising athletes’ to complete a fact file on. We collected this information and organised them into a tri-arama.
Year 6 Transition Tuesday
In preparation for secondary school, Year 6 were asked to come in wearing a tie. This afternoon we had a lesson on how to tie them, ready for Year 7!
