Today, Year 5 have had a visit from Oli, an explorer who has ventured through the Arctic. Oli told us exactly what it was like to live in Arctic conditions and told us fascinating stories about how he and his team survived their great expedition! After finding out about him, the children were lucky enough to learn how animals keep themselves warm in Arctic conditions, create global awareness campaigns and produce art work for our environments.
The engagement from the children has been fantastic today!
Well done Year 5!
Sachiel told me all about the Jubilee celebration tea that the explorers had on top of, what they believed, was the tallest mountain in the Arctic. He also relayed a rather gruesome tale about frozen toes which Oli had told them. A fascinating talk it seems.
