Why is this unit of enquiry important for our learners?

Children will be enquiring into:

• Developing awareness of their own and others’ cultural heritage, traditions and celebrations; 

• Appreciating the similarities and differences between people in our community and world; 

• Making comparisons between celebrations in the local area, in Wales and across the world;

• Experiencing, enjoying and appreciating the arts evident in celebrations across the world.

Four core Purpose Links.

What is your ideal trip?

My ideal trip would be to the Norweigian Fjords. It is the most beautiful place I have ever been, with snow topped mountains and beautiful scenery. The folklore is also amusing.

Interesting fact about me

I am in the Guiness Book of Records! Three years ago I took part in a Tapathon for Children In Need. Lots of tap dancing groups across Britain learned a dance routine and performed it at exactly the same time. We smashed the record and got our place in the record book. We danced to Uptown Funk by Bruno Marrs and it was great fun!

What do I love to do?

Besides playing and listening to music, I absolutely love to read and bake, but not at the same time! 

My first school memory

My first memory is of my infant school. I remember that the Headteacher at the time would bring her poodle to school with her and it was called Kim. She would have a sheet of plywood across the entrance to her office to stop the dog escaping! It was quite scary! I also remember my first teacher too. She was called Miss Plaister. She would give us sneaky biscuits with our milk each day and she was kind and caring and funny.
