‘A reader lives a thousand years before he dies…’ writes acclaimed fantasy author George R.R. Martin and in Year 6, it feels like we’ve crammed a year’s worth of literary experiences into one four-day week.

'Decorate Your Door', Mystery Book in the Library, Read-a-thon, Book Character Dress-up... It may have been a four-day week but we had so much fun celebrating Book Week!

Year 2 have had an egg-cellent, action packed Book Week, focusing on our theme ‘Give me a clue!’.

This week, children of all year groups reviewed what they have learnt this term in various ways under the guidance of their teachers. They also learnt about the traditional Chinese Festival of Qingming.

As the weather becomes warmer and we relieve ourselves from the weight of our jackets, so too do the children relieve themselves of the weight of yesterday and prepare themselves for tomorrow. It has been fantastic to see the resilience students have shown in the face of all the difficulties these last few weeks.

The children in Reception have taken part in various activities related to Book Week this week.

We began our English unit by reading an old tale with a modern twist ‘The Three Little Pugs and the Big Bad Cat’. We discussed the materials the Pugs used to make their houses and why.

We have been spending time learning about dinosaurs.

This week in Performing Arts we have started to learn a new assembly song 'Be Kind Online'.

Pelicans have been learning all about life in the Shang Dynasty this term.

Year 2 have gone medieval-mad as part of our Topic and have absolutely had a blast (or a trebuchet…)!

BSB Sanlitun Book Swap Week will take place in the School Coffee Shop from Monday 28 - Thursday 31 March. Drop off boxes for book collection can be found inside the San and Li Foyers and the School Coffee Shop.

Spring is a season of opportunities. It brings us not only a boost of fresh air, warmer weather, but also a positive impact for learning. Check out the fantastic week here in BSB Chinese classrooms!

The past few weeks have been very exciting for Year 1!

The children in Year 5 went back in time as part of their Shang Dynasty and Ancient China topic.
