The Silver Sword

Joseph has met a young lad living in the ruins of Warsaw, who has a cat and a wooden box, but, as yet, no name...

He tells the boy of his children and wife and his plan to travel to Switzerland where they had agreed to meet. Joseph gives the boy the Silver Sword on the understanding that if he should meet Joseph's children he will tell them to also make their way to Switzerland.

We left Joseph and the boy dodging the Nazi patrols on a dark, wet, night in a Warsaw railway yard, trying to find a train that he can jump on to to begin his journey west.

Will there be one? Will Joseph manage to jump aboard safely? Will the boy find Joseph's children?

Photographs

Hi!

We would love to include photographs on our blog of the children in Class Trillion. In order to do this we need to have consent. Many children have already returned their green consent forms, but some haven't, which means that there are lots of lovely photographs that we cannot share at the moment.

Sooo, please take time to dig to the bottom of your book bag and look for any forms or letters which might be mixed up with your homework or buried under your reading book and that should have been given to parents or carers. If you cannot find the consent form, don't worry - you can get a new one from school.

Remember, our blog is a great way of sharing your school life with family and friends across the world and photographs help to tell your story!

Thanks,
Mr. Gamage.

A message from the children of Class Trillion

Good afternoon!

This is a special day - some of the Trillion children are writing this blog...

This morning we enjoyed a Philosophy for Children session where we decided that STEALING IS NOT GOOD. But, we thought hard about what we would do if we were hungry and had no money...

We have painted some fantastic pictures of our Solar System. Here are some!

Please tell us what you think!

Thanks for looking. 

Lunchtime languages - Walkley Culture Week

This lunchtime we were privileged to have Emma, a former PGCE student, and two of her colleagues with us to explore activities based on languages and cultures from around the world.

Children from both Trillion and Kensuke wrote using Russian and Japanese scripts, used chopsticks to pick up Maltesers, dressed in Japanese clothing, painted masks and played musical instruments!

From what I saw, everyone who attended had a lot of fun.

Photos to follow...

And here they are!

Olympic Gymnastics - a visit from Harry Owen

On Tuesday 25th September we were very excited to host a visit to the school by a Team GB gymnast - Harry Owen. All the children in the school,took part in a sponsored event in the hall - here is a photograph...

Flying kites!

Last Friday morning we flew the kites that we had made as part of our Instructions work in our Literacy lessons. The sun shone and there was just enough wind to get them airborne (with a little running around to help them on their way!) The kites were simple to make, needing only thin card, an art straw, masking tape, ribbon and string.
