Space Centre

Hola!

 

Today I went on a school trip with the Year 5 pupils of Ward Green Primary School to the Space Centre, which is located in Leicester, East Midlands. The reason for this fantastic trip was to learn more about the interesting new class topic the 'Solar System'. I learnt so many new facts about what surrounds the world we live in and even got to watch an amazing mini movie about astronauts in the Space Centre's Planterium. I also had great fun on the simulator ride. Below is a picture of me with my Year 5 friend and my Space Centre ticket.



 

I am really enjoying my time in England at Ward Green Primary School but I am also really looking forward to seeing all my friends when I get back home.

Breakfast Club

Hello Friends,

I really enjoy attending breakfast club before lessons. They have delicious food and we get to play games.

Today, I am designing with my friend. I am trying really hard to colour carefully! British children love art!

 
Here I am practising my measuring. For some reason, the bobbins are really heavy.

 
Love from Curro!

Swimming!

Today, I am at the swimming pool with my friends. They are really good and can swim fast!

They go swimming every Friday and have to take a coach to the swimming pool.

Gardening at the allotment

Hello Friends,
 
Here I am with my friends from class 4 and 5! Each class has been given a plot of land. They  are trying to grow fruits and vegetables.
 
Can you see me watering the potato plants? When they are ready we will cook them in the school kitchen!
 
 
Here I am next to the allotment scarecrow! He scares away the birds!

 
My fingers are turning green!

Summer Fair

Hola,
Wow! Today has been brilliant. I visited the school Summer fair at Ward Green. The parents, teachers and children spent a long time preparing.

Here I am with the school's other mascot. He says he is missing Roving Rex.

We all had glitter tattoos. They were really sparkly but now I don't want to wash it off.
 
We bobbed for apples. Some children got very wet!

 
I won a coconut on the coconut shy! We had to thow bean bags to try and knock one off.

 
Here I am playing Jenga with my friend from class 4.

 
They even had a bouncy castle and fair ground rides on the school playing field.
 
 
We are waiting to see how much money as been raised. All the money will be spent on something good for the children to use in school!
 
See you soon, love Curro!

Letters From Friends Around the World
























Hola!

Today, I spent the day with pupils from Year 5 at Ward Green Primary School reading letters from pupils around the world that are taking part in this great Comenius Project.

I was so amazed with how brilliant the letters were written and decorated, and could see by the reaction of the pupils that they were very happy that so many pupils from different countries had replied to their letters.

It has been such a fun day and really look forward to reading more letters in the future!




































A Day Trip to Kirklees Light Railway


Hola! I am missing all my friends at home,

Today, I went on a school trip with the Year 1 pupils of Ward Green Primary School to Kirlees Railway Station which is located in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire.

I had a fantastic time with my new friends learning about the history of the old steam trains that used to go around England. I did many different things such as playing in the big outdoor play area and I even got to ride on a 'mini' steam train on a track around Kirklees Railway Station which you can see from the picture below...
