Here are the school council members singing and signing 'Reach Out Your Hand'. All these children helped the school to learn the signs. Thank you for all your hard work.
Spring 1 2016 - BSL
Children will be learning British Sign Language this half term.
We took part in Sign2Sing and learnt to sing and sign 'Reach out your hand'.
Thank you for everyone who supported this event and gave donations. We raised £175.74 for the SignHealth charity. 
European Day of Languages
In September we celebrated this day and every class found out about a different language. The children shared their learning with the rest of the school in a special assembly! Throughout the day the children took part in a range of art and craft activities to find out about the culture of their chosen language.

May 2015 - Language of the Month: Shona - Here are children enjoying a delicious meal from Zimbabwe
April 2015 Language of the Month - Spanish: Photographs of our Spanish Lunch!
Language of the month: February and March 2015
We learnt British Sign Language. Along with schools across the country we joined in the Sign2Sing Event 2015. This is an annual event, giving an exciting and fun introduction to sign language through music. Deafness isolates children and affects their health in later life. Sign2Sing brings Deaf and hearing children together through sign language. It was celebrated in schools from Monday 2nd February to Sunday 8th February 2015. All the children thoroughly enjoyed learning this song. For more details about Sign2Sing please visit their website: http://www.signhealth.org.uk/

Language of the month: October 2015 This month we have been learning Swahili. We had a special assembly on Thursday 6th November. Victoria from Badger class and her dad told us all about the Swahili language and Tanzania. They came dressed in their traditional clothes and brought some African objects. They showed us lots of beautiful photographs of Tanzania. |
