 Last Tuesday Room 18 had some wonderful visitors. We loved hearing them share their stories and showing us their family treasures.

Here are some of the things we saw-

On Tuesday 20th September room 19 had an open day. The children invited their grandparents to share stories from their cultures and childhoods. we learnt alot about each other that day, we learnt about what makes us different and unique and also what makes us simliar to each other. It was a wonderful morning of celebrating our diversity as a class.

We had a big turn out for room 19. Glad we could all fit in!

My grandad brought in his banjo.

Emma's grandad  showed us his special running treasures.

Daniel's dad shared his passport with us.

On Tuesday Grandparents came to visit the Junior School. They came to share their treasures and stories with the children.

Afterwards the children worked in pairs or in threes recountingin their own written words what had happened. These are their stories:
