Hey! Our names are Cortney and Tyla and we are going to tell you all about our amazing encounter at Trewern. It all started on our six hour journey to the border of Wales. Half way through our journey we all stopped for some rest and lunch. After we had all eaten our lunch we were able to set off for are other half of the trip.
Finally we arrived at our destination and had to take all the suitcases out of the bus before it left. Next we all had to meet up in the lounge and they told us all the instructions we needed to know. After being told we all set upstairs with our heavy suitcases. Next we had to unpack our luggage.
After an hour we all went on a night walk. When we got back we had hot chocolate and strolled up the stairs for bed. After doing so many exciting and giggly activities we finally reached the last day and were able to go see our parents. When we got back school was just ending and all the parents were waiting to see us.
This year we've learnt a lot. Some lessons we learnt were fun and others were normal.
When school started we met each other and learned each other's names.
October
As a trip we walked in the local area around the school and talked all about land marks, different streets, shops and graffiti on the wall. Then it was Black History Month. We wrote projects for homework and did African dancing and percussion workshops.
November
In November the old man of Ilford came in to talk to us about life in Ilford in the past.
December
After we visited the Vine Church and learnt about Jesus and sang carols. The following day our school drama group performed a Nativity play. Then a pantomime group came to act out the story of Jack and the Beanstalk.
January
After the holidays we started our DT topic and we designed and made sandwiches which had to be healthy, balanced and attractive. Then we designed and made picture frames.
February
It was book week when we read a book, 'Silly Billy' by Anthony Browne. It was a book about a boy who always worried when he slept but, when he went to his granny's house his granny gave him worry dolls which he told his worries to and he never worried again. So we made our own worry dolls and wrote a book about what you can do with your worries. It was the book fair next where we could buy some books.
