At the end of last term, Grades 1 and 2 enjoyed a great trip to the Turks and Caicos Conch Farm – the only one in the whole world! Danver gave us a super tour and we learned all about the life cycle of the conch. It was fun to meet Sally and Jerry, the resident wild conch. We also enjoyed singing the song ‘Dry Conch’. Listen to the song as you see photos of our trip. Thanks again to all the parents who helped out with transport. So much to see and learn – I think we all learned something new!

Ms Shara has been back working with Grade 5/6 this term and together, they have been exploring choreography.

In Grade 2, we have enjoyed looking at some of Vincent Van Gogh’s paintings. He used vivid colours and wild brush strokes to express how he was feeling when he painted. This term, different people have helped us to use pastels, paint and computer software to create our own pictures in the style of Van Gogh. Take a look at our slideshows to see our work.
