  • Stone Age Exploration

    Published 19/01/23, by Rachael Jurkiw

    Our topic this term is based on Cave Baby by Julia Donaldson. We have been on a whirlwind adventure exploring the different periods of time we know. From the Dinosaurs to Covid 19 we have been playing and learning about these different times in history. 

    We had lots of fun creating our own timeline, thinking about where periods of time would go. We were amazed that there was such a big gap between the start of time and the dinosaurs!!!! We then had an amazing time exploring real life Stone Age artefacts, discussing wether they were old or new, how we knew and describing the similarities and differences. Take a look at some of our amazing work...

  • Celebrations and Festivals

    Published 19/01/23, by Rachael Jurkiw

    At Dunkirk we learn about a huge variety of celebrations and festivals. This term our enquiry question has been: Who celebrates what and why? Even though our main curriculum focus has been Christianity and Judaism, we have also focussed on non-religious celebrations and celebrations practised by other faiths in our school community. As a multi-cultural school, we believe it is important to learn about and respect all faiths and we love the children to give examples of big days in their lives, talking about why it is special to them.
