We are very excited to be representing The United Arab Emirates next week during Sports Week. We chose this country as it was the first country we visited for our “Holidays” theme according to Mason! We are so excited to all be wearing a T shirt with the flag of the UAE on it. A shout out to Paula in Dave’s class for kindly printing them for us.

We have begun to learn all about the country and what a fascinating country it is, especially Dubai with its amazing buildings, Palm Island and beautiful beaches. We have listened to the National Anthem, made flags, listened to some children’s songs in Arabic and explored Belly Dancing. We have so much more planned for next week and that’s not including all of the wonderful sports activities planned. We will be getting involved in Cricket, Dodgeball, Paralympics, Table Top Sports, Welly Wanging, Wheelchair Races, Bikes and Orienteering. Wow! What a week it will be.

We also said a sad “Goodbye” to our Snails which we have been looking after for a couple of weeks. We have learnt so much about them and they have enjoyed staying in our Snail Hotel so much so that three of them have had babies! We set them all free in the Caterpillar garden and we were delighted that every child in the class felt confident and happy to pick one up and let it go. We will check on the babies from time to time.

And finally, a little peek at our new Holiday Display in the making. It’s fabulous!

Another brilliant week. We look forward to sharing next week with you.

Babs, June and the Team.

    A lot of fab work and lots of fun! Loved they all picked up the snails, including Sophia. She did eventually pick one up the other day at home when she found another, which I thought was amazing! Thank you. Xx
