The children in Class 3 have been taking part in a number of activities around a theme of peace.
We took part in an art project with the Leeds City Museum. We were asked to create symbols of peace to be displayed in the museum alongside work from other schools and community groups in Leeds.
Two visitors came from the museum to explain what the project was all about.
They told us about the First World War.
and we looked at lots of artefacts from the museum.
Then we started our art work.
The work is on display at the Leeds City Museum until Sunday 18th November 2018.
As part of our Armistice celebrations we have created poppy field pictures in our sketch books. The poppies have been a symbol of hope, courage and peace for the last hundred years and we were keen to make them part of our work on peace.
We all helped to create a new peace garden in our school grounds
Everyone planted a flower or shrub in the boarders of the garden.
We had lots of fun along the way and we now have a quite space for reflection and peacefulness in our school.
