VE Day

Greetings and Ganes Challenge

When we return, the one thing we want to do—run and hug each other—is the one thing we really mustn’t do! At school, we have decided that it might be fun to create some fancy physical greetings and games which don’t rely on contact with each other.

Hand signals, dances (with singing!) facial expressions, sign language—the list goes on. Perhaps you could theme your game or greeting to a topic from your class?

We are challenging you all, (parents, children, staff and governors) to come up with some

fancy greetings and games to share when we are back in school. Photograph/video them and send them to your class teacher so we will recognise them when we see you.
