• Olympus European Languages Day

  Sun 04 Oct 2020
  On Friday, Olympus became red, black and yellow for the day as we studied German. We were very fortunate to have two virtual visitors: Mrs Newsham’s son, who spoke to us about learning German and answered lots of questions; Mrs Newsham’s friend from Germany, who showed us round a German house and taught us some German. Lots of vocabulary was learnt and some of the class were able to hold a short conversation in a German by the end of the day.

  Hej! In Year 3, we have used European Day of Languages to learn about Denmark! We got to grips with different pronunciation (and letters!), delved into the bustling city of Copenhagen and snuggled up to learn about the Danish practise of Hygge, the cosy wellbeing lifestyle. We had a brilliant day and learned lots! Tak skal du have og farvel! 🇩🇰

  Pendle Class enjoyed learning all about Denmark as part of European Day Of Languages. The children researched and created a fact file for Denmark, learnt all about Hans Christian Andersen and compared his fairytales to the a Disney version. They also enjoyed learning some Danish words and recorded these into a keynote presentation. Finally we learnt all about Hugge which is the Danish practise of being cosy and comfortable.

  During our history sessions this week, the children became archaelogists! They examined different artefacts from the Saxon and VIking periods. They were looking for clues to help them determine what purpose of the items were! There were some very interesting ideas indeed!

  Snowdon class looked fantastic in their red and yellow clothes today! Everyone was excited to learn some new vocabulary.  We followed this by learning more about Spain, looking at the geography and culture of the country. I think the children really enjoyed tasting Spanish food!
