Picking up smarties with chopsticks proved particularly difficult!  

A Year 6 group prepared and served lunch for themselves and 4 members of staff.  Vegetarian curry and summer pudding..... delicious!      

Some people are disabled and have to adapt their lifestyle.  We found out what it would be like in a wheelchair and what it's like to help.

John Franklin came to tell   
us about his expedition to climb Kilimanjaro and Class 1 dressed up in a John's climbing clothes.  We also tasted water that had been purified with chlorine tablets.

Finding water in Africa is hard work.  We made a waterhole for our thirsty animals.

Carry the water carefully and don't spill
    it!

Tim Foster came to help us with problem solving

We also had visits from

• the Police to tell us about keeping safe and their jobs in the community
• the school nurse came to talk about good hygiene
• a puppy came to visit us who was being trained to be a guide dog
• Rev Crippen came to take assembly
• School Governor Mr Sanders came to tell us about filling our Aqua Box to help people in areas of the world affected by disasters
• Laura Summers, international skipping champion came to teach us new and complicated skipping techniques
• A Book Fair was available every day after school during lifestyles week 

Year 6  managing the Fair Trade Stall at the end of Lifestyles Week.

and we all visited the Life Education Van which has an illuminated full size body model, audio visuals, an electronic talking brain, a stair ceiling and, of course, Harold, the happy healthy singing giraffe puppet (as ever, an amazing experience).

And last but by no means least, we would like to offer thanks to the Friends of Great Rissington School; the Governors and parents who gave of their time so willingly to make our week so enjoyable.  We could not have managed without you!
