Class 3: Carbon Ambassadors, Play Leaders and RE in class 3.

Carbon Ambassadors

Our 4 Y6 Carbon Ambassadors presented an assembly to the school asking everyone to come to school on Friday with a 'green accessory'.The children then tried to explain why a green accessory was relevant to the ambassadors. They talked about how we were trying to save money and cut down on wasted electricity and showed graphs relating to our school.

They explained the peaks( sleep over night) and troughs( weekends)on the graph and explained on Friday they were taking several meter readings hoping we would be able to show we had remembered simple things like closing doors to keep heat in, turning lights off at break times etc.to hopefully save the school money.

Play Leaders
Mrs Key from Inspire+ is training class 3 as Play Leaders. They have learned the theory and talked about possible issues that occur at break and why they happen and how to prevent them eg. people having no one to play with.Now they are learning how to involve children n games, how to pick teams quickly and fairly and how to lead the actual games.

All learning how to work as a team involving everyone.

RE with Reverend Lillian

We have been looking at colours in RE and associated feelings and emotions and our next lesson was to look at colours in the church. Reverend Lillian came into class with lots of items that had special colour significance . She showed us vestments chasubles and stoles that she wore in different church seasons.We discussed the colours and what they represented in the church and compared these to our previous work thinking about colours.We learned all about the church seasons and at the end we ordered ourselves in church season order wearing and holding the items Rev. Lillian brought in. We made a circle to show that the seasons start again and are like a circle.
