Year 5 and 6 continued their exploration of the history of Toulouse for their IPC topic “Home Country Host Country” with a visit to Les Jacobins in Toulouse. They brought this church and medieval monastery alive with some role-play as monks, complete with costumes.

Photos of the trip can be seen here . Our plainsong chant can be heard here .

The classes are working on producing a movie of the “day in the life”, some of which can now be seen here.

Preparing for their end of term assembly and the move to Secondary, children in Year 6 developed their own adinkra symbols, based on traditional African symbols, to show what values and qualities were important to them.

See a lightbox gallery of their symbols here.
