The local fire brigade (LFB) visited Year 5 for a workshop to teach the children about fire safety. During the session, the firefighter explained the importance of having working smoke alarms and practising a fire escape plan at home. They demonstrated how to 'Stop, Drop, and Roll' if clothing catches fire and discussed the dangers of playing with matches or lighters. The children had the opportunity to ask questions and learn about the protective gear and equipment used by firefighters.
In Spring 1, we learned the British value of 'Mutual Respect.' The children engaged in a debate titled, "This house believes that promoting stereotypes is ok." The class was divided, with half arguing for and half against the motion. Those in favor suggested that some stereotypes can be positive, while the opposing side highlighted how stereotypes often lead to more harm than good. This activity helped students understand the importance of respecting diverse perspectives and the impact of stereotypes on mutual respect.
During English, we learnt new vocabulary words for our Victorian setting description. We then acted out our definitions and pupils had to guess what word it related to from our vocabulary list.
What an incredible achievement for Pearl Class! Congratulations on a fantastic performance of The Lion King! Their hard work and talent must have truly shone through.
