The start of our world trip : South Africa

As most trips start with planning meetings, Mel and I decided to start our trip in typical South African fashion .......


with rusks and hot chocolate and a combined meeting with both Grade 2 classes!

A wonderful colleague setting up the early morning rusks and hot chocolate

Such excitement

The children all had an opportunity to chat with each other before we started our planning!

What a wonderful birthday surprise for Shriya!



Can I have one, Mrs Rayner?

Glee!


Nothing like dunking a rusk in hot chocolate!



We then showed them a world map and discussed where we would travel. It was exciting to see their enthusiasm for the adventure ahead! 

We settled down to focus on South Africa with a puzzle map of the various provinces which they then had to complete. The class is organised into a map of South africa and there are 6 groups named after the main provinces - at the moment the Free State have the most points! 

Long may the fun last!
