Cultural Creativity!

Yr6 have enjoyed an amazing day, celebrating the cultural diversity in our school. The day was launched with an assembly, where we were able to think about how important diversity is and got a chance to see the amazing traditional outfits the Key Stage were wearing. We then had four different lessons from four different cultures: Ireland, Japan, Brazil and Australia, where we tried Gaelic football, made Japanese Koibinori kites, danced a Brazilian samba and painted using pointillism in Aboriginal art. At lunchtime, there was the chance to explore books from other cultures in the library, and for the last hour of the day, we regrouped, to give children in our classes the chance to talk about their cultures and to share objects and artefacts. We reflected on the amazing and culturally diverse day, we had experienced!
