As children settled for the assembly, they were greeted by a wall to wall tapestry – The Havisham Tapestry. The children have been studying the pivotal events of the 1066 Norman invasion within their castles topic. They have studied the Bayeux Tapestry to learn about what men at arms wore in the period and have been doing data handling on everything from the number of horses to arrow wounds depicted in it. With Sara, our resident artist’s, guidance, they have created their own tapestry featuring themselves. The class assembly shared their art, singing, acting, poems and clear enjoyment of their learning and was a great finale to this year’s class assemblies.
I loved being in the ASSEMBLY! (Thank you miss mchale and miss Gemell.
