Our teachers thought carefully about the skills and knowledge that we have at Horton. Using this they chose fifty activities that they thought we would enjoy and that would support us in the future. During our time at Horton we will have the opportunity to carry out these activities.
The activities include listening to an author talk about their book, visiting a place of worship, looking after an animal, visiting a city and lots lots more.
To launch ’50 Things to do before you are 9!’ we had a circus workshop. We loved learning new skills, some of our favourites were balancing and juggling!
We welcomed author Andy Tooze to our school. He is a poet from Buxton. He worked with all classes to write and deliver poems. His books include the ‘The Poetry Bug,’ It was an inspirational day for all.
Do you know what a baby hedgehog is called? It is called a hoglet. We learnt how hedgehogs prepare for the cold. We were sad to find out that our prickly pals are in decline in the wild. We then become the builders of the future, creating a hedgehog friendly housing estate – using lego!
