Year 1 were very excited to welcome some of their grandparents to school to help us answer our topic question ‘What was life like when grandparents were young?’ The hall was filled with memorabilia, photos, books, games and toys and as the children walked around, we could hear them being very inquisitive about what they could see. There were some lovely conversations going on and lots of questions being asked. At the end, the children performed their poem ‘Now we are six’ by AA Milne. It was a lovely way for the children to get first-hand accounts and experiences about life before they and their parents were born. Thank you to all the grandparents who attended; we know some grandparents travelled to be with us today and we really appreciate the effort everyone made. The children loved having you all in school!
