In the week of Monday 16th November – Friday 20th November, the school ran a Creativity week. Blunderbus Drama company came in on the Monday and gave a performance of The Rainbow Fish to KS1. Children in Year 1 were then involved in workshops based around the book. Blunderbus then returned on Friday and carried out drama and acting based activities with KS2 children. Each year group across the school carried out focused work based on the theme ‘An Underwater Adventure’.
Examples of the types of activities the children were involved in range from creating mini book based on The Rainbow Fish, to writing shape poems, creating playscripts and producing 3D underwater scenes.
The children were also set two competition tasks. The first was a class task to design an A3 sized creature that might be found under the sea. The second was the homework task which was to design and make a vehicle for underwater that might be used in the future. The judging of the entries was very difficult as there were some fantastic ideas.
