Living in the Wider World
Year 4 have learnt about deforestation and how this is affecting the World’s Rainforests. We had a great debate on this topical issue
Mr Souter from Debt Aware came to work with Beech class on the topic of Debt and Money skills for life. We explored the differences between wants and needs and how we should always budget for our needs first, before we think about our wants.
We worked on budgeting and realised how challenging it can be to make money stretch for all the things we need and want. We discussed what debt means and what can happen when we get into debt. It was a very interesting session with lots of sensible ideas and thoughts raised.
Parliament week
Our year 6 school councillors were invited to the town hall to find out a little more about parliament. We met Sir Lindsay Hoyle and the Mayor of Chorley. They spoke about their roles within parliament and we had the opportunity to ask them questions. After refreshments, we took part in 2 debates with children from other schools.
Our school hosted a Careers fair for key stage 2. We visited lots of stands to find out more about different careers. We were inspired by a doctor, midwife, the police, a vet, Preston college, the army, sports coaches and many more.
After our careers fair, all children in school took part in our dress up day, ‘When I grow up .....’ Our children are aspiring to so many different careers.
