As part of our TASC project, Blwyddyn 4/5 have been learning all about the traditional African adinkra cloth. We researched the meaning of the symbols, chose symbols that represented our personalities, came up with different designs and made our own adinkra cloths!🌍

Thank you to our JRSO’s and young ambassadors who organised and supported our yr1/2 pupils in a morning full of fun! As they cycled and scootered around the track our year 6 pupils created a petrol statio , a car-wash, a McDonald’s, a jail and even a police speed patrol person!
