Early Years are looking forward to The Easter Bunny arriving and are preparing to make him feel very welcome .
Reception had a brilliant day celebrating Mother Language Day, with the children having the opportunity to learn about the home languages and culture of our friends.
In Mrs Culshaw’s class Hana’s mum came in to class to talk about her home country, Iran. We learnt about the traditional costumes worn during special occasions, the capital city and how school in Iran is different to the UK. Hana’s mum told us that she can speak three languages! Persian, Turkish and Arabic, the children were very impressed! We finally learnt how to say words like ‘mum’ and ‘friend’ in Persian.
Lucas O and his mum, who is originally from Romania, sent us in some delicious Romanian pastries that they had baked at home. Lucas told us how he made the pastries and talked about the ingredients he had used. We really enjoyed getting to taste them!
In Mrs Stalker’s class, Wahji’s dad came in to talk about his life as the captain of a ship in his home country, it was so interesting and the children were really keen to ask lots of questions! Wahji’s dad also taught us how to say some Arabic words. Elon’s dad also spoke to the class about the important work he does within the local community and spoke to the children in his home language, Kurdish.
Overall the day was an enriching experience for the children and they were able to gain a wealth of knowledge about the home language and culture of their peers.
