We have had a fabulous start to year 1 We are looking forward to launching our Road to Rio topic. The children will take part in a carnival celebration with samba music, decorations and lots of creative activities.

We will hold our very own ‘Brazilian Carnival Day’ to kick-start this colourful topic. We will play dress up in our brightest carnival clothes and make richly coloured bunting and flags to decorate the classroom. Play carnival music or invite a local samba band to join in the fun. Join in by clapping, dancing and moving your bodies in time to the music. Alternatively, take part in or visit a local celebration that involves live music, costumes, dancing and singing. Let’s get ready to party!
