 Earlier this week our Lovely Leopards shared their learning in assembly with the rest of the school. They have loved learning about Ancient Egypt this term so they were very excited to be able to share that with the whole school. They read about things they had learnt, shared their Canva work and even sang a song. Well done Leopards! 

On Monday, Leopards and Giraffes had a go at re-enacting the day of the ancient Egyptian Queens funeral. They imagined they had entered the tomb for the first time and that they had to sacrifice themselves to join her in the afterlife.     

 This afternoon, we started to learn about the process of mummification and the steps and methods the ancient Egyptians used. Leopards and Giraffes had the task of turning one of their peers into a mummy using toilet roll!

  This afternoon, Leopards and Giraffes had a visit from Nurse Jess. Jess talked about what it is like to be a nurse and the types of illness she might come across. The children planned and asked their own questions. The children brought some of their poorly teddies to the nurse to see how they could be made better and they also had chance to use some of the equipment. 

 On Tuesday, the juniors were learning about Christian wedding ceremonies and the promises which we make during a wedding. In order to have a real understanding we held our own ceremony.

 On Monday, the juniors built pyramids using different materials such as clay, lego, paper, magnets and jenga blocks as part of their topic on Ancient Egyptians.
