This term, the bloggers will be interviewing the teachers of St. Matthew’s, so that the parents and children can get to know them. We will be interviewing the class teacher from Nursery to Year 6 and posting towards the end of the school week. For example, one Thursday you will get Year 3’s class teacher interview out, then about a week later, you would get Year 4’s. But we’re starting off with nursery this week.
Year 6 trip to National Gallery
On Thursday 25th November, Year 6 set off into London on a trip to the National Gallery. In the morning, we had a talk with a guide about some paintings and then we had lunch. Then, in the afternoon, the challenge began. In our groups, we had an iPad each and a checklist. Our mission was to search the gallery for the category/ title given on the list. For example, we would be given the words ‘The Ascension’, and have to find a painting that reflects that topic.
The points are still to be added up and there is a whopping prize for the winning group.
Recently in Year 6, we have been working on some scrapbooks and other activities reflecting the National Gallery. For good pieces of work, points will be added to each group. Below, are some of the wonderful pictures taken of the art at the gallery.
