Citizenship Week in class 9

Date: 29th Oct 2021 @ 10:49am

 This week, during Citizenship Week, the children learned that being a Citizen means that a person belongs to a particular country, and they have  rights, duties and privileges of being a citizen.

Citizenship education aims to develop the capacity of children to participate in a fair and inclusive society throughout their lifetime. It also teaches them the importance of independence of thought and to recognise the power of reflection and debate.

Citizenship education enables young people to explore personal and social values, as well as their peers’, in light of concepts such as diversity, equality, justice and democracy.

This week has been Curriculum Week. Our theme for the week has been, how to be a good citizen.

The children have learnt a lot about what it means to be a good citizen and they have explored what it means to them now and in the future.

They now understand that Citizenship involves people working together to make positive differences to the society in which they live – locally, nationally and globally. ... And that in many countries – where democratic society and its institutions are facing threats – citizenship education is becoming increasingly important.

Year 4's fantastic curriculum week!

Date: 11th Jun 2021 @ 2:59pm

Phase 3 were inspired by ’Time Travel’ for our ‘Out of this world Curriculum Week.’

This week we designed and created our own futuristic home and thought about what our life was like in the future. We then created short drama sketches where we lived in our future homes.

Wall-E was another one of our inspirations – we briefly watched a clip and discussed why mankind would abandon Earth in the future and how it could be prevented.

The children were also budding artists and created Vincent Van Gogh inspired paintings on different media such as paper and the iPads. How creative they all were!

It has been a great week and we can’t wait to get our own iPad’s to carry on with our exciting digital learning.

Have a lovely weekend,
