Today, all the children at Graiseley are taking part in geography-related activities. British explorer James Ketchell delivered a special assembly this morning, where he told us about the "Ultimate Triathlon" he has completed: rowing across the Atlantic Ocean, summiting Mount Everest and cycling 18,000 miles around the world. He also told us about values and wisdom he has picked up from his experiences, such as perseverance, showing kindness and respect to others and learning something positive even from what might have felt like a failure. James will be delivering workshops to the children throughout the day, and we can't wait to find out more!

Year 5 had a visitor from Portals to the Past today, who made Ancient Greek history come to life for us. The children took part in workshops throughout the whole day, where they acted out mythological stories, researched areas of Ancient Greek life and culture, played Ancient Greek strategy board games, looked at armour and weapons, and even acted out Olympic Games. We have learnt so much! Do ask your child to tell you about their experiences today.
