What a fun start to our new project!
Year 1 had a great start to their new project when they dressed up as Polar Explorers. The children enjoyed exploring the North and South Pole (playgrounds) to find the different animals. Back in class, the children had great fun learning about the book ‘Poles Apart’ and creating their own artwork inspired by the book. They enjoyed lots of different learning such as creating snowflakes, drawing polar bears and making penguins.
Thank you to everyone for helping with the children’s outfit, they loved the day.

Anti-Bullying Week & National Kindness Day
Next week is Anti-Bullying Week and the theme this year is ‘Change Starts With Us’.
At St. Mark’s, we are going to change the world with kindness, starting with a secret mission!
Wednesday 13th November is National Kindness Day and each child is going to become a Secret Kindness Agent (SKA for short!) Each child is going to be assigned another child in their class and given the secret mission of improving that child’s day through acts of kindness – but they cannot give away their identify!
Can the children correctly identify their SKA by the end of the day? How successful are our agents going to be?
