Fairtrade at Levens
During Fairtrade Fortnight we have taken the opportunity to learn lots and spread the word about Fairtrade. Here at Levens, we think that it is important that workers and farmers across the globe, get a fair price for their crops and products. Did you know that many farmers do not even get enough income to feed their own families? We support Fairtrade so that this injustice ends. During the day, we all enjoyed a range of Fairtrade snacks including raisons, juice, bananas and biscuits; and learnt lots about Fairtrade in class. At the end of the day, our Good Work Assembly provided an opportunity to share our learning and tell parents all about why it is important to support Fairtrade by buying as many Fairtrade products as possible.
Our Eco-Team organised and led this year’s Fairtrade Stall selling groceries and crafts taking almost £200 to support Fairtrade and every pound is match-funded by the government. A great effort everyone – Thank you!!
Squiggle Whilst You Wiggle
Today our nursery children have been having a go at mark making. We moved our ribbons in time to the music, lifting them up and down. Then we transfered the movement to our pencils. The children had a great time moving to the music and are looking forward to giving it another go!
World Book Day Fun!
We celebrated World Book Day with traditional dressing up – the pupils and staff all joined in and we had a wonderful range of different characters to guess. Thank you to everyone for your fantastic efforts!
During the morning staff pitched different favourite books and the pupils chose which ones they wanted to hear an extract from. We had poetry from Michael Rosen, favourites from Janet and Alan Alberg, and newly published books about noises in the night and vampire headteachers! Our new library display tells you more about staff recommendations.
Each class was busy with book themed activities throughout the day.
