Igloos, Ancient Greek theatre and Leonardo de Vinci - what a mixture this week!


Although it has been a very chilly week, this has not stopped the Riverbank children working as hard as ever.
The Rabbits have been exploring the life of an Inuit, looking at where they live, what they eat and how they travel.  The children have made their very own igloos and for their cooking lesson they even made a gingerbread igloo hut!  The Ice Palace is still being constructed, but it’s worth the wait!
 
The Dragonflies have been learning all about Leonardo de Vinci, he was a man of many talents!  Not only a famous Artist and Musician he was also a fantastic inventor.    The children have really enjoyed looking at his beautiful paintings.  Over the next week the children hope to recreate a self-portrait in the style of Leonardo de Vinci.

The Otters have been continuing their Ancient Greek adventures, they have been learning about Greek theatre. In Literacy they are working on their performance of a Greek legend, It’s very impressive!

The Riverbank School Council representative is visiting Derby today to plant trees today.  We are very much looking forward to hearing how the trip went.
