Room 24

This term we are taking part in junior athletics. Each week we participate in 10 minute revolving sessions of running, obstacle courses, relays, javelin and beanbag throwing. Here we are learning to throw the 'javelin' as far as possible.

The class have been learning all about Diwali celebrations and boy has it been fun! Instead of our usual fitness in the morning we have been doing Indian dancing. Room 24 are fortunate to have experts in the class who were able to teach us about Diwali and Hinduism. We have looked the Hindu gods and ways of celebrating Diwali. The children were interested in how there are seven continents in the world and that India lies in Asia. Next week we will be looking at celebrations around the world including Hannukah and the Winter Solstice.
