On Friday 6th February, Mexico came to Chantry!

Year 5 held a special Mexican Day to celebrate all that they have been studying in various subject areas:  History and Geography, Art and Literacy..

This cross curricular unit is based around our studies of the novel by Julia Jarman, The Time Travelling Cat and the Aztec Empire.

To further expand their knowledge of all things Mexican, pupils were treated to Mexican music, food tasting, Spanish and finally an art project based around the South American quetzal bird.

The many brightly coloured ponchos, sombreros and maracas around the school helped to ensure that it was a fun-filled day.
