Year 1 Pirate Day 12-08

Year 1 Pirate Day

Yesterday, children in Year 1 celebrated the end of their pirates topic in style! Children put all of their skills and knowledge to the test to see if they'd learnt enough to graduate from pirate school.

This culminated in a showcase of learning for parents, where children sang the songs they had been rehearsing in their Music classes, and also showcased their learning from their cross-curricular books. Children took ownership of the showcase and were able to articulate what they learnt beautifully. We thoroughly enjoyed the day and took great pride in witnessing the progress that has taken place so far this term.
