Over the last couple of weeks, Year 4 classes have been visiting Al Jasra Handicraft Centre to experience first hand Bahraini crafts being made by master craftsmen. This supported our learning about Bahraini Culture and provided valuable information for our humanities project. Mrs Nada commented, “I was blown away with the skills the craftsmen showed and hours of dedication they have given to their professions.“

On Monday, Y3 had an exciting trip to the Cultural Hall to watch a stage version of the modern children’s classic: Dr Dolittle. The audience were impressed with the acting, costumes and especially, the animal puppets. The actors also sang and danced along to some modern classic hit songs and this had us all tapping our feet. How we wish we could talk to the animals! ‘It was very good because the characters acted well’ said Megan of 3E
