Next week Mr Hewer, Mrs Shotton, Mrs Cassidy, Mrs Whittaker and Mrs Hogan will be visiting our partners in Turkey for the next Comenius meeting.
The school website link is on the side of this page – look for: NECİP-MÜNİRE ÖNEMLİ İLKÖĞRETİM OKULU Turkey
We will attend project meetings, visit the school and watch lessons, and soak up some of the culture of this fascinating country!
We are taking with us our 2 board games designed by members of Y6 – The Railway and Mind Twizzler.
Thank you to all of Y6 who did a great job designing the games, they were all fantastic and will all be played by children from our school.
We chose 2 games to take to the partners rather than one as we thought it would help them to aim the games at the differing ages of children involved in the project – some of the schools have children the same age as those in our secondary schools.
Well done to the WHOLE SCHOOL for researching the questions – I hope you have enjoyed trying to answer them and now know a bit more about our own europeans!
In addition to the game, we are also taking our dvd – we have enjoyed watching the spanish, turkish and polish dvds and now it is their turn to see our efforts!
Well done to the SCHOOL COUNCIL for their efforts and planning for the DVD – our new stars of the small screen!!
Well done again to the WHOLE SCHOOL for your contributions – we had some great ideas including some wonderful dancing, (and some less wonderful…) lovely smiles and a super idea from Y5 who learned to say hello in the languages of all our partner countries!
Thank you to Mr Rowlands who made our DVD look really posh!
Please thank your teachers for digging out all those dodgy photos of you to put at the end of the DVD… They were fantastic!!
I’ll also be telling the partners about the great work you did for our hall – the displays look really good, and everyone has worked hard finding out facts about our partner countries and their great europeans.
So… you’ve been busy, now it’s our turn! We’ll be telling you all about what is happening next upon our return, we will come to your classes this time as this worked so well last time, rather than holding an assembly, and give you chance to ask lots of questions about the school in Turkey, the project and any of our partner countries.
We hope to get on the blog this week… If not then we will certainly add some photos next weekend, and we will be in close contact with school in other ways.
Have a great week, work hard and play nicely!!
Please remember:
- The co-ordinating school in Poland have now set up a website which will be added to as the project progresses. This is based on the theme ‘Great Europeans from my country’ and you can look at pictures of the partner schools as well and read a little bit about them, and their great Europeans. This website can be found at:
