This term our inquiry topic is Global Celebrations and we have been looking at different celebrations around the world.
We started by brainstorming all the different celebrations we could think of - birthdays, Christmas, Easter, ANZAC Day, weddings, Valentine's Day, New Year etc. Then we started working on identifying the main points of some of those celebrations.

This week the students have started investigating wedding traditions from China, India, Greece and Africa. They have been busy using ipads and computers to do their research.

| Mylo, Luke and Danella research weddings in Greece |

Over the next couple of weeks the students will start working on a duality project where they will choose an occasion and compare how 2 different countries celebrate e.g Christmas in NZ and England. Our topic culminates in an international shared lunch in the last week of term - we hope you can join us.
