2nd Grade Exit Point
On Friday 27th of April the second grade children had their Active Planet exit point. It was a day to remember. The day started with a doctor’s visit who taught them basic things about first aid. They had an earthquake evacuation drill, where they got the chance to see a search party in action. The children all participated in the production of a video and had a chance to make emergency packs to give to their community. It was a day to remember!

Next week

Workshops will be held next week for parents. These will be led by the Spanish teachers in school who will be sharing information about the Spanish curriculum in the primary school.

Trips out of school
As a part of our IPC Olympics units children in 1st and 2nd Grades will be out of school for trips next week to Polideportivo. The PE department of the school is making a real effort to introduce our pupils to some new and exciting sports which we may not offer in school. The children have been really inspired by the Olympic Games and are enjoying opportunities to see and try out new and different activities.
