Y1 and Y5 dance the Tarantella
As promised, here are two videos of the Y1 and Y5 children dancing a typical Italian dance: The Tarantella. It must have taken hours of practise but it was worth it. Hard work and perseverance do pay off!
Molto Bene!! Well done to both classes!!

EUROPE IS MY HOME - ASSEMBLY
All children at St. Faith's have spent the last Term learning about our partner countries and preparing a presentation for each other. They have learnt dances, played outdoor games, researched facts about the countries, cooked some of their foods and produced Art work. All of this wonderful work is now displayed in the main hallway and it would be great if parents could spend some time reading (and learning!) about each country.
We have worked in buddy classes, each in charge of a country:
Nursery and Y3 - Turkey
Reception and Y4 - Poland
Y1 and Y5 - Italy
Y2 and Y6 - Spain
Having practised and prepared our materials, each group then presented it to the school so that we could all learn from each other. We had two fantastic assemblies to celebrate their effort and hard work! At the end of each day, some children from each class set up a selling stall and sold what they had cooked for their parents to try. Wasn't it all yummy?! :)
Below is a video with some photos of the two assemblies. Not everything is included in it, but we will upload everything the children have done very shortly. The backing track is called "Ode to Joy" by Beethoven and is considered to be the European Anthem.
Still to come in further posts:
- Y1 and Y5 dance the Taratella
- Y3 do a Turkish dance
- All children cook delicious recipes
Once again, very well done to all children and teachers from St Faith's. The work you have produced was OUTSTANDING!!!
Happy Easter to everyone!
